Sacred Genoa: A Pilgrimage Through Churches, Palaces, and Heritage

Gênes, Ligurie, Italie

This walk moves through Genoa’s historic core like a story unfolding in narrow corridors and sudden open squares. Expect a rhythm of contrasts: bustling street life giving way to hushed interiors, plain façades that conceal rich details, and medieval stonework beside later layers of art and power.\n\nThe route’s mood shifts from everyday commerce to sacred quiet and civic pride, with recurring themes of devotion, reputation, and the city’s relationship with the wider world. You’ll encounter spaces that feel intimate and enclosed, then moments that open outward—revealing how Genoa’s character is built on what it chooses to hide and what it decides to display.
