We are on the eastern coast of Liguria, the Riviera di Levante, a land of ancient flavours framed by spellbinding vegetation. Where sea and mountains live side by side in intimacy, in a vertiginous clash of the forces of nature. Here are the Cinque Terre, five small villages on a rocky coastline that stretches from Mesco Point to Montenero Point, ten kilometres or so from La Spezia, all sharing unique characteristics; above all, that of being set on a beautiful coast, suspended above the sea, almost defying gravity.
