Canon Powershot SX730 HS Taken on 27/04/2019. Montalto Ligure, another jaw-droppingly beautiful medieval gem in 'Valle Argentina' in the province of Imperia. 'Montalto' means 'high hill', a name that it certainly lives up to because it's over 300 metres above sea level. From the very top of the village you are rewarded with amazing views of the valley, including the French Maritime Alps if you are lucky with the weather. Turning to the village now, I found it to be deceptively small as I got lost quite a few times in its incredible stone passageways, as you can see in this photo set. But then that's arguably the best way to visit a medieval town or village. Moreover, I was enchanted by the medieval beauty and quietness of this sleepy ancient village. I could imagine people going for romantic strolls along the maze of alleys, many of which are adorned with plants and flowers — a common theme in Liguria.
