Favorite Thing: There are so many things to see in Genova that, after 27 years lived here, I discover new interesting places almost every week! So it's hard to decide what to see and what not for your first trip to Genova! My suggestion is to concentrate on the old town, walking along the "caruggi". Forget about shopping, going to the beach... you can do those things in many other places, but you won't see such a great historic centre anywhere else! And then of course there's the aquarium, but if you don't like fishes so much there are many other things to see first (at least IMHO!)!
Fondest Memory: Fortunately I never stay away from my hometown for more than a couple of week a year... but if I had to leave it it would be hard, I have to admit it! Genova is unique, it's a shrine full for treasures to discover, I'd miss the sea, the hills, the old rich palazzi, the sound of genoese dialect, the local people always complaining about everything and so on... Genova has its pros and cons, like every place in the World, but it's my hometown, and Iove it!

sherieel Mon Apr 20, 2009 19:04 UTC it lets me see pic and locations before i get there | cpiers47 Thu Mar 12, 2009 04:30 UTC I've used your pages to help my friends prepare for their trip...thank you! These are fantastic tips. I hope to visit Genoa soon as well. Ciao e grazie ancora! | Laurel914 Wed Mar 26, 2008 21:49 UTC Your pictures and page on Genova are amazing. I wish it was in my travel plans for when I come to Italy in May/June. The closest I'll make it is Cinque Terre, so I guess no tour of Genova for me. Oh well. I'll just add Genova to my travel wish list! | icunme Mon Dec 10, 2007 19:40 UTC Outstanding photos/detail - I favor your travelogues of night in Genova. Will return here often and hope to see it soon. |
