Italy: Manarola

On 19th May I got a postcards from Italy.

It shows Manarola. Manarola is the second-smallest of the famous Cinque Terre towns frequented by tourists, but maybe is also the oldest in the region. Before you wonder why this looks familiar, the Cinque Terre towns including Manarola were the inspiration for the town of Portorosso in the 2021 animated film Luca. Since 1997 are Portovenere, the Cinque Terre and the Islands of Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto on the UNESCO World Heritage List. 

A round stamp about the Centenary of the Foundation of the Mosaic School of Friuli (issued 22-04-2022) was used here and got cancelled in the philatelic shop of La Spezia.


Thank You very much William!
