Portofino is a beautiful tourist town in the region of Liguria in western Italy. The town is known for the rows of houses with multicolored facades "growing" out of the surface of water situated against the background of steep green cliffs. This is a unique place on the Italian Riviera, which was once a simple fishing village, now frequently visited by artists, celebrities and film crews. In the harbor of Portofino luxurious yachts and motor boats moor, whereas in small cafes and restaurants tourists can bump into stars of music and cinema resting here. The church of St. George is one of the most important monuments of the town.
