O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Ta trdnjava iz 16. stoletja, ki se dviga nad turkiznim pristaniščem spodaj, je nekoč branila Portofino pred piratskimi napadi in kasneje postala zatočišče angleške aristokracije. Njeni terasasti vrtovi eksplodirajo v glicinijah, bougainvilleah in limonovcih ter ponujajo ene najbolj fotografiranih razgledov na italijanski rivieri.
Poudarki: Lahko stojite na istih kamnitih obzidjih, kjer sta britanski pesnik Lord Byron in pisateljica Mary Shelley preživljala popoldneve med svojimi potovanji po Italiji v 1820-ih. Zasebni vrt gradu skriva več stoletij staro cisterno, ki zbira deževnico, še vedno delujočo in zdaj obdano z nasadom oljk, posajenih pred več kot 400 leti.
Notranji nasveti
- Skip the small interior rooms and head straight for the garden terraces and ramparts, the real highlights.
- Wear comfortable walking shoes: the climb from the harbor up Via alla Penisola is steep cobblestone.
- Bring a small pair of binoculars to spot the tiny island of San Fruttuoso from the eastern parapet.
- Visit on a weekday in May to experience the gardens at their peak with minimal other visitors.
