Its narrow cobblestone streets wind past ancient stone houses adorned with vibrant flowers, leading to the striking Church of San Giorgio and the ruins of a 13th-century castle. The air is filled with the scent of chestnut trees and wild herbs, and the surrounding terraced hillsides are dotted with olive groves and vineyards. This tranquil retreat offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Ligurian Alps and the Mediterranean Sea in the distance.
