Rick Steves 'Across the Cinque Terre (vídeo)
Foi muito agradável e surpreendente para mim encontrar este vídeo no youtube…suddently Pensei : Essa é uma boa chanche de falar um pouco do Sr.. Rick Steves e se concentrar no que ele significa realmente para a Cinque Terre…
Maybe not many people know… but we (touristic operators of the 5 Terre 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) o 100% of thanks for that but this is mainly “propaganda”..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!..) e depois as edições do “Itália Rick Steve” 1997 e 1998.. fomos abundância de turistas dos EUA, also in the other villages that were almost unknown to the tourist’s mass and I’m talking about Manarola, Riomaggiore e Corniglia , este último tendo o seu destaque mediático neste vídeo.. From there on, turistas dos EUA foram os “mina de ouro” destas terras, pelo menos até o “euro 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:
