An airport is a facility where aircraft such as airplanes, helicopters, and blimps operate. An airport minimally consists of at least one surface such as a runway, a helipad, or water for takeoffs and landings, and often includes buildings such as as hangars and terminal buildings. An airport of entry (AOE) is an airport that provides customs and immigration services for incoming flights. These services allow the airport to serve as an initial port of entry for foreign visitors arriving in a country. Airports of entry can range from large urban airports with heavy scheduled passenger service, to small rural airports serving general aviation exclusively. Often, smaller airports of entry are located near an existing port of entry such as a bridge or seaport.

A flea market or swap meet is a place where vendors come to sell or trade their goods. The goods are usually inexpensive and range in quality depending on several factors, which might include urban or rural location, part of the country, or popularity or size of the flea market. The vast majority of flea markets in rural areas sell goods that are second-hand. Larger selections of newer but usually inexpensive items can be found at some of the larger or more urban flea markets. They have also sometimes been used as an outlet for bootleg movies and music or counterfeit goods ranging from clothing, shoes, handbags, fragrances,etc. The semi-spontaneous nature and vendor-oriented open-market layouts of flea markets usually differentiate them from thrift stores. Some flea markets offer concerts and carnival-type events to attract shoppers.(Wikipedia.org)

Of ancient origin, it was once ruled over by the bishops of Luni. Its port was of great importance to travellers and pilgrims alike, who used to cross Sarzana in order to join the Via Francigena, heading towards Rome and the north of Italy. At Lerici, the Via Francigena forks off towards San Jacopo di Compostela. In Medieval times, the town belonged to Genova, passing briefly under Pisan rule before being reclaimed once again by Genova at the end of the 15th century. / The town’s medieval origins are still highly evident in its layout, which consists of tightly bunched houses lining narrow streets and alleyways. The town boasts a particularly interesting Jewish quarter, a castle built by the Pisans in the 8th century and later expanded by the Genevans, a museum of palaeontology and the piazzas of Poggio and of San Giorgio. The castle houses a 12th century chapel, dedicated to Santa Anastasia. A footpath that winds round the foot of the castle and along the Vassello seafront makes for a relaxing walk. The town also boasts the tower of San Rocco, which dates back to Roman times and which was turned into a bell tower in the 16th century, as well as the church of San Francesco d’Assisi, the public speaking house of San Bernardino, and the Palazzo Doria, which is located not far from the former medieval hospice dedicated to Santi Pietro and Paolo. / The Lerici region also encompasses the town of San Terenzo, home to Villa Magni, in which Percy Bysshe Shelley resided with his wife Mary, and Villa Marigola, which gives onto a glorious view of Venera Azzura beach. The town of Tellaro also falls under Lerici territory, and is a typical seaside town. The town boasts the ancient church of San Giorgio as well as the public speaking house of Santa Maria in Selaa. Villa Cochrane, located between Solaro and Pugliola and otherwise known as Villa Rezzola, is also worth a visit. Set in a park composed of eucalyptus plants, oak and heather, it is a veritable beauty spot. Other towns of interest are La Serra and Pozzuolo, located on a hill covered in olive groves; Senato, a tranquil and verdant oasis; and Solaro, a picturesque village facing out over the gulf.
