What to expect

  1. Pass by
    Bianco, Rosso and Doria-Tursi, neither one nor two, here is the shock trio of Palazzi Rolli gathered!
  2. Pass by
    1 palace, 2 palaces, 3 palaces and it does not stop... No more doubts, Genoa does have an aristocratic DNA.
  3. Pass by
    Discovering Genoa without stopping by its port is a bit like skipping the first chapter of a novel. The one without whom we quickly lack the foundations to truly understand and appreciate the narrative that awaits us
  4. Palazzo Di San Giorgio
    Pass by
    In the crossing of the port of Genoa, there is a monument that cannot be missed: the Palazzo San Giorgio. For 3 obvious reasons: its size, history and pace.
  5. Genoa
    Pass by
    To say that Genoa is the regional capital of Liguria and the first port of Italy, are two strict truths in their own right. But they are also two reducing attributes on that which really is the Superba dall’Italia.
  6. Pass by
    But what would the centro storico of Genoa be without this emblematic site of interest? The answer, we give you: not as special.
  7. Palazzo Ducale
    Pass by
    With more than 120 palaces to its credit, Genoa could have fallen into this strange Impression of permanent déjà vu. But needless to say, these prestigious addresses stand out from each other in terms of size, colour, appearance or orientation.
  8. Pass by
    You know Genoa, maritime. Genoa, the aristocrat. Genoa, the gourmet. But what about Genoa, the defensive? It is true that so far, we have not seen much of it.
  9. Claustro De Sant' Andrea
    Pass by
    On the way between the Porta Soprana and the house of Christopher Columbus, a stone silhouette timidly stands out from the vegetation. You see her? This is the cloister of Sant’Andrea.
  10. Pass by
    Christopher Columbus, obviously that name speaks to you. But certainly not as much as in Genoa. From him, we know in particular his deep passion for exploration with a great E.
  11. Via XX Settembre
    Pass by
    After so much walking, who would refuse a short photo shoot? Here, the model posing in front of you is the Via XX Settembre. Another of the favorite arteries of the Genoese.
  12. Pass by
    To accompany the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, Genoa holds a collection of churches with incredible architectural heritage. Let’s take Santo Stefano Church by your side.
  13. MOG Mercato Orientale
    Pass by
    The great followers of this practice will confirm, shopping at the Point of Sale provides a set of incalculable benefits. For the mind as for the body.
  14. Genoa
    Pass by
    As we tell you, we repeat, Genoa is a history book that, without its always port activity, would never have been so entertaining.
  15. Pass by
    A few notes of lyrical songs, here is the universe of Genoese Attraction right in front. In 1828, after two years of work by architect Carlo Barabino, the Carlo Felice Theatre was inaugurated. Without even being finished.
  16. Galleria Giuseppe Mazzini
    Pass by
    While most Genoese use the bustling Via Roma on their way, some prefer to sneak discreetly into the parallel axes.
  17. Genoa
    Pass by
    One thing is certain: when we talk about Italy, Genoa is not the first city that comes to mind. Yet its little-known and discreet side pushes more and more curious to defy the a priori of this city severely judged dirty and industrial.
  18. Pass by
    Via Garibaldi, you're finally here. Why do the Genoese, overtaken by visitors, have only these two little words in their mouths? Probably because of the splendor and the very special elegance of this avenue.
  19. Pass by
    Sometimes the best way to appreciate a city is to contemplate it again. In Genoa, there is a perfect site to do this: the Castelletto lookout.
  20. Pass by
    In Via Garibaldi, look up a shot on the right, look up a shot on the left is the reflex to take and repeat more than once.
  21. Pass by
    “The first palace I saw was the Palais Brignole; red facade, marble staircase straight ahead,” Gustave Flaubert wrote in his Notes de Trips in 1845. Today, almost 200 years later, it’s your turn to enjoy this same scenography.
