Photo: Vernazza Village Aerial Cinque Terre Liguria
The Cinque Terre in Liguria, Italy is a very extraordinary travel destination, especially the village of Vernazza as seen in this aerial shot.
An aerial view of the village of Vernazza in the Cinque Terre in Liguria, Italy, gives one a clear perspective of this unique location that is built along the coastline. Castillo Doria sits atop a cliff overlooking the radiant hues of the buildings which enlighten the entire region that is beaming with history.
The buildings are tightly packed into a fairly small area, some of them which are perched on the cliffsides and have a great aerial view of the harbour. Here there is plenty of room for fishing boats as well as larger water vessels which journey to Vernazza by sea. Hotels, cafes, restaurants, quaint shops, a historic castle and a parish church are all part of life in the village of Vernazza.
Castillo Doria has been a protector for the village since the 16th century against the pirates who would attack the Cinque Terre coastline.
