Walking tour of the town of Porto Venere. From Arenella Beach to Spallanza Square Hill where San Pietro Church is. This walking tour features other locations such as the ruins of Doria Castle at a distance, Finestra sul Mare (Window to The Sea) and The Town Center.

Portovenere is a picturesque Italian Riviera village by the Cinque Terre in the Gulf of Poets, so called because of its attraction to famous writers and poets.

The town sits on a rocky peninsula and spreads out above the pretty harbor. You can enter the medieval center through the ancient city gate (dated on a plaque at 1113). To the left of the gate are Genoese measures of capacity dating from 1606. Walk up the pedestrian-only Via Capellini, the main street, lined with shops and restaurants.

Narrow medieval streets, vaulted walkways, and stairs lead farther up the hill to the Doria Castle at the top, offering good views of town, San Pietro Church, and the gulf beyond. Walk out to the promontory to visit San Pietro Church, set on a site believed to have been an ancient temple to Venus (Venere) from where the town gets its name. The promenade along the harbor, filled with fishing and excursion boats, is lined with colorful buildings and seafood restaurants.
