Sottoripa 7 Rosso Bar Ristorante In

Considered the oldest public porticoes in Italy, and perhaps in Europe, they date back to at least 1133, on the public initiative of the Consuls of the Municipality, who established precise rules for their construction. It is a long covered market of about 800 metres, divided into four sectors (one of which, called Sottoripa "the dark", half-hidden and little known), restored between 1992 and 2004, when the facades of the buildings were recovered, by the Municipality of Genoa. Always popular, also considering their central position - we are in front of the Aquarium - in recent times (summer 2024) unfortunately episodes of petty crime have occurred which risk obscuring the fame of this important historical site

They are the oldest porticoes in Italy. Under the arcades there are many activities. Shops, restaurants, hotels. In ancient times the sea reached this point. Characteristics of Genoa. Worth seeing.
