Residents navigating the slopes above the old town contend with constant elevation changes on every grocery run.

À propos du lieu

Ancient dry stone masonry traces the earliest settlement defenses on the hillside.

The ancient wall preserves traces of the pre-Roman Ligurian settlement perched above the bay. Built from stacked local stones, the surviving structural remnants delineate early defensive boundaries on the heights. Daily life around the hillside involves continuous climbing through steep stone corridors that bypass modern road networks.

Long-term residents in the surrounding quarters navigate narrow pedestrian lanes where vehicles cannot pass. The elevation isolates the upper historical precinct from the heavy traffic of the waterfront promenade below. Essential services and markets require descending into the lower historic grid and carrying provisions back uphill.
