Not strictly Tuscany
(Liguria actually), but so
many visitors to Tuscany
have the Cinque Terre
on their "must-see" list.
The Cinque Terre are
five small fishing villages
that lie down the coast
from Portofino. Thay all
cling to the sides of the
steep coastline and were
only reachable by boat
until well into the 1960s.
Nowadays there is a road that winds its way through cliffs,
occasionally opening up into galleries that offer tatalising glimpses of
the deep blue water bellow.
