The Cinque Terre is five villages on the Ligurian coast of Italy . They sit on high cliffs above deep blue water . Your room is in Manarola or Vernazza . The walls are terracotta . The shutters are wooden and painted green . You open them in the morning . The sea is right there below you . At dawn the light is ochre . It falls across the harbour walls . Small fishing boats sit on the water . The colours are orange , pink , and rust . The villages have no cars . You arrive on foot from the train station . One train ticket connects all five villages . It is a single - zone fare , and it is cheap . A cliff path runs between Monterosso and Vernazza . It opens again each spring after winter repairs . You walk it slowly , and the sea stays with you the whole way . At the end of the day you sit at your window . The sky turns pink and then dark . The harbour lights come on . This is what the Cinque Terre looks like when you finally stop moving .
