Tourists who choose to explore the stunning Ligurian coast usually choose Genoa, Lavento or La Spezia as their starting point, which we will take a closer look at today. As the second largest city in the region, it boasts excellent communication with the greatest attractions of Liguria. It also has a lot to offer its visitors. What to see during your stay in the city and the surrounding area? What dishes to order in a restaurant to taste real Ligurian cuisine? We invite you to read!. La Spezia is a typical port city, inhabited by less than 100,000 people. Life in it revolves around atmospheric taverns and pubs near the marina and seaside promenades, such as Banchina Thaon di Revel, where tourists walk, visiting fashionable boutiques and shops. La Spezia, although mainly known as an important railway junction, boasts a well-preserved old town. The historic center of the city stretches from the port to the main station, between which you can admire well-kept tenement houses and squares. The rich history of the city is worth discovering in baroque churches and medieval castles. If you get tired of the crowds and noise of the bustling city, you can start your journey around Liguria and its attractions from there. The most popular among them is undoubtedly the Cinque Terre, an extremely picturesque complex of five small towns, located on the hills flowing into the Ligurian Sea. A camping holiday in Italy will therefore be a great opportunity to see Monterosso, Vernazza, Riomaggiore, Corniglia and Manarola, all connected by a narrow scenic road. The nearby Portonovere, considered one of the most beautiful places on the west coast, deserves the attention of travelers. It is worth taking a walk around Piazza Della Marina, seeing the castle on a cliff overlooking the city and wandering among the streets lined with colorful tenement houses. At the end, it is worth leaving a visit to the small, but very luxurious Portofino, which is especially loved by movie stars and businessmen.

La Spezia - a special holiday in Italy

The fame of the Eternal City attracts thousands of tourists every year. Sometimes - especially on exceptionally hot summer days - the crowds pouring through the streets of Rome can tire so much that both the residents and visitors want to escape from it. In search of shade and refreshment, driven by the desire to avoid crowds, they reach about 40 km north of Rome, where the town bearing the same name lies on Lake Bracciano. For its small size, Bracciano has a rich history. It is not fully known when and for what purpose it was established, according to one of the theories it was an ancient settlement on Via Clodia, a Roman road of great importance. It was probably also the point of defense of the nobility against the Saracens (10th century), and in the 14th century it passed into the hands of the church authorities. A century later, it became the refuge of Pope Sixtus IV, who fled Rome from the plague. Legend has it that the city's buildings, which we can admire today, are only a small fragment - the main part of Bracciano is hidden under the surface of the lake. Today, the town is an enclave of greenery and peace, attracting people looking for rest and relaxation. The lake on which it lies was born as a result of the merger of several extinct volcanoes. Its depth reaches 165 meters, and there are hot springs on its shores. It is surrounded by a lot of greenery - a regional nature park (Parco Naturale Regionale di Bracciano - Martignano) has been created around it. There are several holiday resorts by the lake: apart from the largest one, Bracciano (with a tourist area by the coast), there are also Trevignano Romano and Anguillara Sabazia. People who spend their holidays in Bracciano can go on excursions around the lake, get to know the mentioned towns and the beaches created nearby.

A must-have for a little traveler

As for the Ambre campsite it's not a very good campsite, yes, reception and entrance gate nice + reasonably clean showers that would be the end of the day. In my opinion, a tight campsite is only suitable for tents, because driving with a caravan or motorhome around this campsite is a threat. On the plots, tents mixed with caravans and motorhomes set up have not yet encountered such a setting. Considering the price and the quality it is too expensive. Sanitary facilities are only 2 and practically at the beginning of the campsite, while the back of the campsite must smoke a good piece because there is no toilet at the end.

It is hard to find a more interesting corner of Spain, more saturated with contrasts and influences of different cultures than Andalusia. The very name of the place sounds captivating - the Arabs named it just like that, Al-Andaluz. Stretching through almost half of the southern part of the country, neighboring with Portugal, it has been a tasty morsel for centuries, for everyone: Romans, Arabs, today ... tourists. Andalusia is not so much attractive, it is even hypnotizing. A journey in Andalusia will include the mighty mountain peaks of the Pyrenees, orange groves, fiery flamenco, sandy beaches of the Costa del Sol, and, of course, unique architecture. Although many tourists prefer to focus on the art of relaxing on the beach, it is worth getting off your deckchair for a moment and going deep into this amazing province to discover the heritage of ancient, Arab and Christian culture on your own. Each of them had Andalusia under its rule, and each left its mark in the form of world-class monuments that we can see today in all their splendor ...
