What to see in Genoa?

The name Genoa ("Genova" in Italian), according to a Roman legend, originated from the Roman god Janus ("Giano" in Italian), protector god of all passageways, including the door to one's home or the gates of a city. This theory has some support in the importance that the Genoese placed on the entrances to their homes: every doorway was decorated with a bas-relief, often with a scene depicting Catholic saints.

Cafeteria and lounge, free Internet point and also WiFi connection, furnished library (also with magazines and newspaper and many VHS of Italian art-directors for free watching at school).
