Imperia
  Imperia

Located in a favourable position, Imperia, chief town of the Province, owes its name to the river Impero, that separates Oneglia from Porto Maurizio, once rival villages but today merged in a sole municipality. At the mouth of the stream ‘Impero’, on a small flatland, there is Oneglia, site of important industries in the field of Mediterranean food. The most elegant shops of the city are to be found in the typical streets of the centre. Along the marina, right at the back of the harbour, there is the "Old Oneglia", with its ancient fishermen’s houses and the Doria Palace.The most attractive part of the city is the one that extends on the slopes of Cape Berta, a promontory in the sea, rich of palms, cypresses and olive trees. At Borgo Peri, under the arcades of the quay, there are fish shops and excellent fish restaurants. Along the promenade, adorned with tall African palm trees, from the extreme point of the eastern pier, it is possible to admire a beautiful view on the entire Gulf of Imperia and the mountains lying behind it.The Olive Museum proposes its century-old history of the olive oil as well as its production.Clung on the promontory, the ancient town of Porto Maurizio is a tangle of streets and winding alleys, all going uphill. The medieval nucleus offers an unmatchable view over the bay of Imperia, over the ancient fishermen’s villages and over the sea.At the foot of Parasio, there are the ancient villages of Marina and Foce, parks, villas and well equipped bathing establishments. Here the Mediterranean brushwood finds its best "habitat", marrying demands and needs of modern tourism with the enjoyment of an open air vacation: camping, touristic villages, tennis courts, soccer fields, bowling lanes and swimming pools.The century-old union of Porto Maurizio with the sea is renewed every two years in its marina by means of the renowned and internationally expected event of the ‘Vele d'Epoca’ and it is confirmed as well by the important naval museum in Piazza del Duomo.At Borgo Marina, the little marina is next to one of the most beautiful and famous beaches of the Riviera, the ‘Spiaggia d'Oro’ (Golden Beach). Not too far away, at the eastern point of Porto Maurizio, there is ‘Borgo Prino’ with its typical restaurants where the best of the local cooking can be savoured.
