As beautiful as the Cinque Terre villages are, Portovenere, which overlooks the Gulf of La Spezia, has often been considered the “sixth” village for its outstanding natural beauty and its association with a number of literary figures who were enchanted by its beauty.
Perched on a rock overlooking the sea, the Church of Saint Peter offers incredible panoramic views across the Gulf of Poets. The original church dates back to the 5th century but was not officially consecrated until much later in the 12th century, and underwent further restoration in the 1930s.
