Castello è un rudere. Da 5 stelle il panorama

Claudio Tanasi (10 months ago)
Un bel borgo ligure in zona collinare

Mauro Vannini (11 months ago)
Marvelous place. You have to see it.

Tommaso Bruno (11 months ago)
Veramente spettacolare come il villaggio sia curato, dalle viette alle case stesse, panorami su tutta la vallata, il castello purtroppo è in rovina e abbandonato,

Ci arrivo spesso da Romito Magra fraz. di Arcola (2,5km) facendo footing. La vista del paesaggio dal Castello è veramente bella, e si è immersi nella natura.

Historic Site of the week

Medieval Walls of Avila

The city walls of Avila were built in the 11th century to protect the citizens from the Moors. They have been well maintained throughout the centuries and are now a major tourist attraction as well as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors can walk around about half of the length of the walls.

The layout of the city is an even quadrilateral with a perimeter of 2,516 m. Its walls, which consist in part of stones already used in earlier constructions, have an average thickness of 3 m. Access to the city is afforded by nine gates of different periods; twin 20 m high towers, linked by a semi-circular arch, flank the oldest ones, Puerta de San Vicente and Puerta del Alcázar.
