The city of La Spezia is situated in the Liguria region of Northern Italy and serves as the capital of the province bearing the same name. It is nestled in the Gulf of La Spezia, also referred to as Golfo dei Poeti (of the poets), as it was once home to renowned English poets such as Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) and George Byron (1788-1824). La Spezia is known for its commercial port, one of the most significant in Italy, but it also houses one of the country's largest military industries, OTO Melara. Despite La Spezia's modern appearance (most of its buildings were constructed after 1920), the surrounding area is rich in attractions. The region boasts picturesque villages like Lerici, Portovenere (a traditional fishing village), and the Cinque Terre, where a national Natural Park has been established. Cinque Terre, Portovenere, and the islands of Palmaria, Tino, and Tinetto have been recognized as world heritage sites by UNESCO.
