At the same time, Genoa is a seaside city that welcome every culture, even at the table.

La Bottega SolidaleWhat to do to with the children
From 0 to 12 years, the hunger for knowledge is limitless. At Porto Antico we offer families with children a sea of things to discover: from literature to science to technology, from sport to nature. How can you resist the fascination of knowing something new? You can look to natural species that no one even knew existed, the new discovery of ancient and sometimes forgotten arts. Our kids need incentives, events, exhibitions, but above all, curiosity. Are you ready to surprise them?
