Cinque Terre - Italy - Tourism Links

The Cinque Terre is an interesting tourist destination on Italy's coast, five villages between the sea and 18 km of rugged, terraced hillsides towering above. You can walk between the towns for spectacular views. The five towns are: Monterosso al Mare (the largest), Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. The Via dell'Amore, a walking path carved out of the rock, links the last two.
