Photo: Tiny Village Riomaggiore Liguria Italy
The tiny village of Riomaggiore perched on the side of a cliff in the National Park Cinque Terre in Liguria, Italy.
The tiny village of Riomaggiore is perched on the steep side of a cliff in the Cinque Terre National Park in Liguria, Italy. If travelling from the south, Riomaggiore is the first of the five little villages, then comes Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and finally Monterosso.
