Ribe

Ribe

This town is known from 869, which make it young comparing to many ancient towns of Southern Europe, but this is a very respectable age at this latitude. Actually, it's one of the oldest towns in whole Scandinavia. Its cobblestoned streets and half-timbered houses remember the old times when Ribe was very important trading center. The town remains small, any of its corners is walkable from the main square, Torvet, in 10-15 minutes.


 

Camogli

Camogli

A pretty fishing village turned into a resort town, Camogli is a true gem of Ligurian coast. It is a part of Portofino Marine Protected Area. Once known as the "city of thousand white sails" for its fleet (and having 500 patented ship captains out of 12000 residents in 1880s), the town now lives mostly off tourism. Colourful buildings line a few streets over the beach and remind the times when vivid colours helped fishermen to return home. The town is also a home for a nationwide water polo team that won several Italian championships - so it's not a too big surprise that swimming pool is one of the most important recent buildings in Camogli.
