La Spezia, Italy

La Spezia Italy

The city of La Spezia is located in the region of Liguria in northern Italy and is also the capital of the province of the same name, set on the Gulf of La Spezia, also known as the Golfo dei Poeti (Gulf of Poets). It earned this name because it was, for a time, home to important English poets such as Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822) and George Byron (1788–1824). The city has a major commercial port, one of the most important in Italy, and it is also home to one of the country’s largest military industries: OTO Melara. Although La Spezia is mainly a modern city (most of its buildings were constructed after 1920), there are many places of interest in the surrounding area. Nearby you’ll find beautiful villages such as Lerici, Portovenere (a traditional fishing village), and the Cinque Terre, where a national nature park has been established. Cinque Terre, Portovenere and the islands of Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
