We stayed three nights in the lovely Cinque Terre...a part of the Italian Riviera. We stayed in Riomaggiore...but spent time in all of the "5 Lands"...even hiking through all of them! The towns are very picturesque...and accessible (and in some cases ONLY accessible) by train. Riomaggiore was a bit less touristy than the others, but not too quiet...it seemed to me there were locals out and about gettin' business done everywhere. Manarola was the most picturesque...and quiet. Vernazza was also very picturesque...but pretty packed with tourists. Corniglia was also very pretty...very quiet...and the most remote, being the only town not right next to the water. The final town, Monterosso was very resort-y. There were lots of tourists here too...but there was more space to handle 'em. We enjoyed all five of them and especially enjoyed havin' an apartment to "live" in for a few days. :)
