La Spezia
The city of La Spezia is located on the border of Liguria and Toscana. The town is pleasant, though it is not a striking tourist destination it is well connected by transport and makes a good and affordable base for exploring.
Most of the tourists visit the Cinque Terre and the Golfo dei Poeti and the nautical heritage is another major attraction for the tourists. Couple of museums which makes the city famous are the Museo Civico Amadea Lia based in a former monastery and contains donated collections, Museo del Castello is a museum of fine collection of Roman and Pre-Roman art facts and some striking stelae from the Bronze and Iron ages. The most famous museums above all is the naval museum, the Museo Tecnico Navale which claims to be the best of its kind in the world. Luxurious parks along the esplanade is pleasant enough for a stroll or a sit down.
