On the streets of the Cinque Terre

Yesterday I came across this web video ( http://travelpluswine.com/2010/03/the-best-curves-in-italy-traveling-to-cinque-terre/)thanks to Twitter and I said:…well, we always talk of paths of 5 Lands and praised the beauty but also at the bottom of our paved roads deserve a mention…typical for the benefit of Italian who loves the comfort of your car, albeit not in line with the ecological-environmental National Park…publish this fun video from an idea of ​​the beauty of a small driving on provincial 51 and 61 and State 370 from Levanto to La Spezia. By not taking advantage of the weekends and at sunset you can enjoy a truly unique views…
Note: Per minute 0:30 – 0:38 we are in town Volastra; per minute 1:10 -1:28 resort Knot

Finally a couple of warnings:

• A link to information about how to get to the Cinque Terre by car>> and…
• Do not try to compete with the pilot of this video…!

Rick Steves' Across the Cinque Terre (video)

It was very nice and surprising  for me to find this video on youtube…suddently I thought : That’s a good chanche to talk a bit of Mr. Rick Steves and focus on what he does actually mean for the Cinque Terre…
Maybe not many people know… but we (touristic operators of the 5 Land area ) must be very much grateful to him since, not only in my opinion, he’s been the main reason of Cinque Terre’s popularity in the USA and all around the world.
We’re used to listen local media tributing to the National Park (formally established in 1999 and effectively in 2002) the 100% of thanks for that but this is mainly “advertisement”..I know I'll be accused of partizanism (or better anti-partizasism!) but that’s just the truth.

The story:
Around 1995 Mr. Rick Steves came into these lands and since the first moment he felt in love with this lanscape, espetially Vernazza . From there on, he started to spend beautiful words on his guides, (and these words were and hopefully still are …again just the truth!..) and after the editions of “Rick Steve’s Italy” 1997 and 1998 .. we were plenty of tourists from USA, also in the other villages that were almost unknown to the tourist’s mass and I’m talking about Manarola, Riomaggiore and Corniglia , this last having its mediatic prominence in this video.. From there on, tourists from USA  were the “gold mine” of these lands, at least until the “€ revolution” of 2002 and even more until the recent global recession…But they were more! They were also speakers of the beauty of our towns to the rest of the world and we want to thanks them..and incourage them to return back soon!
So now the video:

The Way of Love – Video

The Way of Love is the most famous pedestrian path of the Cinque Terre. Connects Manarola to Riomaggiore and it is open to all without any special equipment for trekking in just over 20 minutes.

For more details on the path we refer to our pages dedicated to Via dell'Amore , and the voice of Wikipedia ; in the video you can get an idea of ​​what it really is the Blue Trail.
(you will have to wait about 15 seconds for buffering the video)
