This walkable town in Piedmont with a café-filled centre, Novi Ligure sits north of Genoa at a historic crossroads between the Ligurian coast and the Po Plain — a position that made it a major hub of the Genoese Republic and shaped its commercial character. Today the town produces wine, including Cortese di Gavi DOCG, alongside steel and confectionery, with well-known brands such as Pernigotti and Campari among its industrial names. Mountains are visible from the town, and several UNESCO sites lie within the wider region.
