Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Ghasimi - Portofino is a holiday resort and a small coastal fishing village in the Italian region of Liguria. It has a beautiful harbor, colorful buildings, stunning landscapes, great night scenes, and is also a popular destination for yachts.

The village was founded long ago by the Romans and was called Portofino, but the most impressive thing about Portofino is the way of life, so getting around to see the sights probably won't be the number one priority when planning a vacation in this village.

There are some prominent landmarks that may be able to attract tourists, ranging from beaches to historical monuments, but the view of the port or any of the surrounding beaches may take you a full day for the beauty of that panorama.

Among the historical monuments that Portofino abounds in is Castello Brown, a 16th-century castle that was used to defend the region, but today it is a museum with a wonderful view of the port and the Mediterranean Sea.

Just around the corner from the port is St. Martin's (Devo Martino) Church, an elegant 11th-century building that is definitely worth taking a stroll around.

Perhaps the best places to stay around Portofino are those close to the port and beaches, although in reality every place you might stay is close to all the important sights because the village is small in size.
