Seeing Cinque Terre

From its terraced vineyards to its terracotta stained buildings, Cinque Terre is a sight to behold. In addition to the natural beauty of the area, tradition runs thick. You can see the tradition when two local female residents are hanging out of their windows after 5pm chatting instead of using their cell phones. The colors are uniform and ancient in their presentation for a reason, you can't paint just any old color...it has to get approved. In other words, tradition is mandated but it is also embraced here and you can see it. There is no use in me jibber jabbering anymore. Shall we see some pictures?
