THE PRIVATE KITCHEN
Chiavari
Situated halfway between the lively city of Genoa and the unmissable Cinque Terre, Chiavari is a delightful medieval town set in the heart of the Gulf of Tigullio, one of the most important areas of the Riviera di Levante. It is an ideal base for exploring some of Liguria’s most famous destinations, such as Portofino, yet it also fully deserves time and attention in its own right.
Chiavari has preserved its character remarkably well and offers a unique, authentic experience far from mainstream tourism.
Here, visitors can truly feel part of the place and experience firsthand the traditions and everyday life that define it.
The colorful historic center unfolds in a neat grid of caruggi - narrow lanes lined with 13th-century porticoed buildings - which reveal themselves slowly, inviting you to explore at an unhurried pace.
Known as the city of porticos, these ancient arches give the historic center its unique character. Nestled between the arcades, you will find traditional artisan workshops and local "osterie" where you can enjoy authentic and exquisite Ligurian cuisine.
The airy old town is enriched by nearly three kilometers of medieval arcades, mosaic-decorated floors, churches, monuments, and welcoming squares.
The Ligurian atmosphere is reflected in the bright colors of the houses and in the elegant architecture of the noble palaces, reminiscent of those in Genoa’s historic center.
