    1:24:48 that's fried panissa.. it's made with chickpeas flour. It is cooked like polenta and let it rest to set. Then it can be diced and served with sliced onions and some olive oil as an appetizer or deep fried like the one you're having.

    Adore Genoa. The Aquarium is worth visiting and a walk up to castelleto is great for all the views from up there. The Porto Antico is a bit touristy but you can sit at the end of the port and enjoy the ships coming in and leaving as well as look at the moored yachts. On a clear day the views from the public wooden dock next to the aquarium are incredible, especially as the sun comes down. All the houses on the hills lighting up looks incredible. A ferris wheel ride at the end of the porto antico also worth it

    The Latin name of the city is "Genua." The Italian name is "Genova." The English name is "Genoa." One of the two football teams in the city is called "Genoa" (the other is Sampdoria) because it was founded by a group of English expatriates (it is the oldest football club in Italy).

    Io sono di Genova, sono contenta che ti sia piaciuta la mia città e la focaccia! Hai mangiato la focaccia migliore di Genova, l' anno scorso Stanley Tucci ha girato una parte del suo programma "Searching for Italy" proprio lì dentro! È impazzito per la focaccia, ha voluto provarla inzuppata nel caffelatte 😊! Ci sono un sacco di cose belle e curiose su Genova che magari non hai visto e non conosci, se dovessi tornare ti suggerisco cosa visitare. Sabina

    5:00 The Historic Ship is not exactly an Historic Ship but it’s an Hollywood relic from the Roman Polanski’s movie ‘Pirates’. They took it here for an exhibition and … it remained as an attraction. The real historical boat is inside the Galata Museum a 100 meters from the boat on the right and is much much smaller because it’s a preproduction of an 800 years old vessel.

    Not true, many city names in English keep the original name in the local language. For example Milàn, Turìn, etc. and I as an Italian get pissed off if in English they use the Italian version. Those who say otherwise are not natives. Genoa, on the other hand, is a somewhat different case because in the local language we say "Zèna" with the pronunciation of "z" being confused with the pronunciation of "s".

      actually, it's high, but it's not a "highway", it's a normal urban way for city traffic. The real highway it's north on the mountains (mostly under). Genova is mostly a narrow city on the sea, and they needed a street to take people from east to ovest. It's part of the SS1, Aurelia, the old Roman way to Rome

    1:32:50 Saint Georges' Palace (the slaying of the dragon on the upper central part of the façade). A weakening economy, "a few" political problems, beauty is still there but my heart sank seeing the deterioration, grafitti, stores closed down... Italy is far from being the only one enduring hard times, of course

    L'erba del vicino e' sempre la migliore. Non conosci il mugugno dei genovesi e la loro introversione e lamento. Tu hai filmato il centrostorico cioe' l'area in cui secoli fa Genova era contenuta ma oggi Genova e' molto piu' grande ma tu non l'hai vista al di la' di quelle limitazioni locali. Alla fine hai visitato pochissimo di Genova.

    Genova è una città che riceverà miliardi di investimenti nei prossimi anni
    La sopraelevata (la strada che passa davanti il waterfront) sarà probabilmente demolita. Stanno costruendo un tunnel sottomarino, una nuova autostrada sui monti, una nuova diga foranea (la più profonda d'Europa), terzo valico uno dei tunnel ferroviarij più lunghi del mondo(av ac high speed railway from genoa to tortona and after Milan), 3 nuove stazioni metro(la metro di Genova è cortissima ora), una nuova linea metro sopraelevata ( skymetro), waterfront di levante (ristrutturazione della fiera e nuovi appartamenti e canali d'acqua con posti barca), 4 nuove linee di filoviarie, quindi finalmente dopo decenni di abbandono e degrado qualcosa si sta muovendo. È una città bellissima ma oscurata dal suo importante porto e dopo gli anni 60 ' sono stati costruiti tanti nuovi quartieri ma in modo poco organizzato e selvaggio. Io personalmente odio tutti quello che è stato costruito nel dopoguerra.
