A brief History about the area which dates back to the 11 Century it was under Military rule  ( the Republic Of Genova ) Genova  is the famous port City of Liguria . During the 16th Century the area was attacked by the Turks , the citizens to fight and defend themselves built defense towers and thanks to the Military of La spezia the people managed to keep themselves safe . In the 19th Century everything  changes a decline which caused great poverty and many people left the area because the railway was built between Genova and la Spezia so the people left to escape their isolation. Only in the 1970's we see the renovation of the Cinque Terre and now is a rich resource for the area.
