Live Webcam Genova
Watch any live HD webcam from Genova, Italy also known as Genoa. The first of the two live cameras is facing the port and city center (sul porto e sul centro città). The second live streaming cam shows Lido di Genova (beach). Genoa is the birthplace of Christopher Columbus (1451), who embodied the active maritime tradition of the city. It is heavily connected to medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, and Gothic architecture.
One of the main attractions is the historic center, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The narrow streets, known as “caruggi,” are filled with charming shops, cafes, and picturesque squares. Visitors can explore the grand Palazzi dei Rolli, which were once the homes of noble families and are now open for public viewing. This area captures the essence of Genoa’s past and offers a delightful experience for those wanting to immerse themselves in local culture.
Another highlight of Genoa is the renowned Aquarium of Genoa, one of the largest aquariums in Europe. This fascinating facility showcases a variety of marine life, including sharks, dolphins, and tropical fish.
The aquarium’s educational programs increase awareness about ocean conservation, making it an ideal attraction for families and school groups. Additionally, the surrounding area features the Bigo, a panoramic lift that provides stunning views of the waterfront and the city skyline.
Finally, one cannot miss the iconic Lanterna di Genova, the city’s lighthouse and a symbol of Genoa. Standing at 76 meters tall, it offers breathtaking views of the harbor and the Ligurian Sea. Visitors can climb to the top for a panoramic sight of the city and its coastline. Nearby, the old port area, regenerated for modern use, is filled with restaurants, shops, and museums, making it a perfect area for relaxation and exploration.
