Manarola
After Vernazza, Manarola was probably the village I wanted to visit most in the Cinque Terre. From our base in Vernazza, it was easy to reach using the local trains, as the lower trails connecting the towns were closed. The view, of course, was spectacular. In fact, I found myself taking various photos of the village throughout the day, and into the night. It was only later I realized that I barely took any photos inside the village itself — just one or two!
It’s a beautiful place and well worth a visit. The view at sunset is great, you can walk along the trail and see the entire village lit up.
In case you missed the previous posts, here are photos from the other four villages of the Cinque Terre: Vernazza, Monterosso, Corniglia, and Riomaggiore.

We love your photos, what type of camera do you use?
Thank you! I have two Sony point-and-shoot cameras that I travel with — a Sony RX-100 Mark 1, and a Sony RX1 fixed-lens 35mm.
Point and shoot have come a long way recently. A friend bought a Canon SHX50 for a trip that included Antarctica and Death Valley in California. The videos and stills he came back with were the equal to most “hobbyist” DSLRs. I’ve enjoyed your photos very much – for technical reasons as well as colour. Many thanks.
We were in Menton, France .
I’m making a painting of the church that has the crazy zig- zag walk up from the water- don’t know the name of the church. Do you?
In Menton, there are two in that plaza — Basilique Saint Michel and La Chapelle des Pénitents-Blancs.
