The Cinque Terre is a rugged coastal area in Italy comprising five villages: Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. Over centuries, people built terraces on the steep landscape up to the sea cliffs. The coastline, villages, and hills are now a national park and UNESCO heritage site. The area is very popular among tourists who travel between the villages by train, boat, or hiking trails since cars cannot access them directly.

2. The Cinque is a rugged portion
of coast on the Italian Riviera.
It is in the Liguria region of
Italy, to the west of the city of
La Spezia. "The Five Lands"
comprises five villages:
Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza,
Corniglia, Manarola, and
Riomaggiore. The coastline, the
five villages, and the
surrounding hillsides are all
part of the Cinque Terre
National Park and is a
UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Over the centuries, people have carefully built terraces on the rugged, steep
landscape right up to the cliffs that overlook the sea. Part of its charm is the lack of
visible corporate development. Paths, trains and boats connect the villages, and
cars cannot reach them from the outside. The Cinque Terre area is a very popular
tourist destination.
