Belvedere Castelletto

Belvedere Castelletto, also known as Spianata Castelletto, is a hilltop park and fortress reached by walking trail or an Art Nouveau elevator.  This fabulous "balcony" suspended over the Historic Centre of Genova offers panoramic city & sea views. From here visitors can admire the enchanting houses of the old town, as well as medieval towers and Baroque domes; in the distance, the Mediterranean Sea comes alive with both modern ships and ancient memories.
