In fact, it is a stone's throw from Santa Maria di Castello, the church located on the Castrum hill, one of the city's oldest and most evocative sacred places, and the Torre dei Castro (also known as the Embriaci Tower), Genoa's ancient castle or medieval stronghold. At 41 metres high, it is the only surviving tower of the many towers that once dotted the historic centre. The Old Port, the Aquarium and Via Garibaldi are also just a few minutes away. Also known as the 'Superba' or 'Zena' in Genovese, Genoa offers a unique combination of architectural beauty, delicious cuisine and authentic atmosphere. The city stretches over a series of hills that descend towards the Ligurian Sea, creating breathtaking views. Its historic centre is the largest in Europe and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Porto Antico of Genoa has been completely renovated in recent years and is now a lively leisure area with attractions such as the Aquarium of Genoa, one of the largest in Europe. Numerous historical palaces, churches and museums testify to its past grandeur. Among the most famous attractions are the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, the Palazzo Ducale, the Lanterna di Genova and the Museo di Palazzo Reale. Genoa is also renowned for its delicious cuisine and specialities such as pesto genovese, focaccia, trofie al pesto, pansoti with walnut sauce and many other fresh fish delicacies.
