The region of Liguria is wonderful in the summer .. but why not break up the monotony of autumn with a visit to the Riviera, when the days are usually gray and cold.
Follow the footsteps of the English, Russian and German aristocracy, who spent the winter here and enjoyed the beach or the lovely countryside, during their walks in the warm sun. The women of the organisation "destinations in Liguria" invite you to stay in their homes and to try out the only destinations organized for you.
You can visit the botanical gardens, which the British in the XIX.. and XX. century have applied to the Riviera during their winter vacation. The exotic plants were brought from the Crown Colonies of the British Empire , where they were stationed as diplomats or civil servants. Accompanied by the owners you get to know the history. Have a cup of tea with the last descendants of the prominent families who will be happy to show photos and documents in their homes.
You can walk the trails along the Ligurian villages, which offer magnificent views at every turn. You will find that almost nothing has changed, since many famous painters such as Claude Monet and Auguste Renoir painted here.
Not to mention the villas, which famous architects built for their customers. They are still witnessing a wonderful period, as the Riviera had regents, scientists, and last but not least famous Clowns as guest. A visit to the villas would be very interesting because they still contain lots of things that were dear to the heart of their owners.
Do you know where the smallest theater in the world is? Only 70 seats in a theater with exceptional charm, embedded in a building in a medieval village in the countryside.
All this will make the holiday on the Riviera "in a different season" to an unforgettable experience.
