Cinque Terre

Cinque Terre has been on my wander list since I saw a picture of the colourful houses of Manarola many years ago...

Perched on Italy's Ligurian coast, the five villages that make up Cinque Terre (Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso) all look absolutely breathtaking. I imagine it's not as unspoilt as it once was now that it has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site but I'm not sure I care.
