Expect winding streets oozing with vintage charm on a holiday to Genoa.
City breaks to Genoa
Genoa, a city in the Liguria region of northern Italy, is a hidden gem for tourists. It's loaded with traditional charm, featuring centuries-old palaces, stunning art galleries, and a maze-like medieval city centre with narrow alleys and winding streets full of pizzerias.
The history
Genoa's had a wild ride through history. From the 11th to 17th centuries, it was a major self-governed maritime republic. Then, it was a big player in the Industrial Revolution in the late 1800s. Fast forward to 1992, after years of struggle, the city got a major glow-up to celebrate the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's first voyage. It was named European Capital of Culture in 2004, and is still Italy's busiest port today.
Exploring Via Garibaldi
This iconic street, packed with Insta-worthy palaces, is the place to be if you want to vibe with the rich history while checking out cool art exhibits at places like Palazzo Rosso and Palazzo Bianco. It's the perfect blend of old-school charm and modern flair, making it a must-see spot for anyone looking to soak up some culture and snap some pics.
Best time to go to Genoa
Genoa's weather is a bit of a rollercoaster, with both sunny days and rainy ones. July and August are the hottest months, with the temperature lingering in the high twenties. January and February are the only months when it dips below double digits. You can expect rain anytime, but November really brings the downpour.
