Belvedere Luigi Montaldo

Belvedere Luigi Montaldo is an elevated viewpoint in the Castelletto district with sweeping views of the harbor, rooftops, and distant mountains. A glass elevator from Piazza del Portello provides easy access to reach this raised platform.

This viewpoint came into being during the urban development of Genoa's hillside areas as the city expanded upward over past centuries. The development connected lower districts with higher residential zones.

This place serves as a gathering spot where locals pause to take in the city and enjoy simple moments together. The location naturally invites people to stop, observe, and share the view with those around them.

You can reach this spot easily by glass elevator, which stays cool even on warm days. The platform works well for people with different mobility levels and gives you room to spend time here.

Maritime pine trees provide shade across the esplanade and frame the view of large harbor cranes and the Ligurian coast. These green trees form a surprisingly natural oasis within the urban view.
