Located in the upper left part of the Italian "boot" Genoa (Genova) - a resort loved by many Italians. Here the climate is mild, the cool wind from the sea eliminates the choking heat, and the water off the coast warms up well. Tourists also love to come to Genoa - the rich history of the city allows you to spend time usefully, and if you are tired of wandering along the ancient streets, you can relax while sitting in one of the many cafes or on the seashore.
