Italy in 45 Days - Day 31: Vernazza/Riomaggiore/Manarola

This is Tuesday when they have some vendors allowed to drive in here. Usually there's no cars here but they let them drive Tuesday morning only. This is the train station for Rio Maggiore in Chinguaterra and this is the pedestrian trail down to the main part of town. We're gonna be coming back that way. You can see how beautifully clear the Mediterranean is here. Yeah, I guess this is it. That was the way up to the castle. Look down there, they're swimming on the rocks. There's Rio Maggiore down there. Rio Maggiore. There's the Church of San Giacomo as the city climbs up the river valley up the hills from the sea. There's the clock up there. And I tried to walk up there but it said private so I don't know. Rio Maggiore. This is your classic view just a little bit above me. Rio Maggiore. What do you think, Michelle? Would you like to comment? Yeah, fantastic. This is the most northern of the Chinguaterra towns. We're just spending the morning here. Way over there is Moro Rosso, the northern most one. We'll go to tomorrow. Rio Maggiore. It's the name of the establishment here. And the viewpoint is rather popular right now. Hello. To your right, Manarola Vineyard Hike. Isn't that beautiful right there? Look at that. And we need half an hour to get back to Patsiaco. It's a bit more than a six hour. and an old weedy set of stairs. Yeah, it's getting a little dark. Maybe I shouldn't go up any farther. This is how pickers and grapes get up the slopes. Motorized
