WHAT YOU VISIT
Romantic Sarzana, Italian Sunset and Dinner
Sarzana is Liguria's best kept secret. Dating back to Roman times, this hidden gem rose to prominence in the 11th century as a strategic stronghold and major agricultural and commercial center. Feel its history come alive with a leisurely sunset stroll through the beautifully preserved historic center. Marvel at the golden light of the late afternoon as you amble along the narrow, cobblestone streets. As the sun sets, Sarzana reveals its romantic character when the warm evening lights illuminate medieval buildings, lively piazzas and quaint shops.
PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
Sarzana's historic heart boasts a number of architectural treasures. Situated on the edge of the 15th century town walls is the well-preserved 10th century fortress known as the "Cittadella." Nearby sits the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta; built between 1204 to 1474, it's a splendid example of Italian Gothic architecture, renowned for its intricate marble façade.
DINNER
After the walk through town, the evening continues with dinner at one of Sarzana's most historic restaurants, first opened in the 19th century. Enjoy a traditional Italian dinner beginning with a classic aperitivo, followed by a first course and a local dessert accompanied by carefully selected Italian wines, offering a true taste of the region in a magical and historic setting.
WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
The approximate 20-minute drive from La Spezia travels through the Amo Valley, an area highly coveted and fought over by the Florentines, Genoese, and Pisans in the 14th and 15 centuries.
