Portovenere (kapena Porto Venere) ndi mudzi wokongola, wokongola kwambiri ku Mediterranean, kum'mwera kwa Cinque Terre ndi Genoa, ndi kumpoto kwa Livorno. Ali m'dera la Liguria ndi Province la La Spezia. Komabe sindikudziwa komwe kuli? Chabwino, sindinatero, mpaka sitima yathu yoyendetsa sitimayo ikasokoneza Porto Venere. Pamene nkhaniyi inatsimikiziridwa, ndinasangalala ndikuchita.
Tinkayenda panyanja ya Mediterranean kuchokera ku Barcelona kupita ku Roma, ndipo sitima yathu inkayenera kupita ku Portofino ku Riviera ya Italy kwa tsiku limodzi.
Komabe, tinathamanga ku nyengo yoipa, ndipo woyendetsa sitima yathu yaing'ono yamtunda adalengeza kuti sitingagwire ku Portofino chifukwa cha nyanja zovuta. M'malo mwa Portofino, tinkapita ku Portovenere.
Palibe munthu amene anali m'chombocho anamvapopo za Portovenere . Koma, tonse tinali masewera kuti tipeze zosangalatsa. Gombe la Portovenere linali lotetezedwa kwambiri, ndipo pamene tinayang'ana kunja kwa mudzi wawung'ono, ndinali ndikutentha komanso kumasangalala. Ndinadziwa kuti tinali tsiku lochititsa chidwi.
Antchito oyendetsa sitimayo adabwera ndi maulendo angapo apita ku Pisa ndi La Spezia kuti akalowe m'malo mwa anthu omwe tinawapeza ku Portofino. Anatiuza (ndipo adatsimikiziridwa ndi ena mwa anthuwa) kuti Portovenere ankawoneka ngati Portofino zaka zambiri zapitazo. Mzinda wa Portovenere unkawoneka wokongola kotero kuti tinaganiza zongoyendayenda tawuniyi tsikulo. Icho chinali chisankho chabwino. Pokhala ndi mapu a zochitika zoperekedwa ndi sitimayo, tinakwera sitimayo.
Monga zambiri za ku Ulaya, Portovenere ali ndi mbiri yochititsa chidwi yomwe ikubwerera ku nthawi zachikunja. Mzindawu unkakhala kachisi wa Venus Erycina, omwe amatchedwa Portovenere. Inali malo oyendetsa panyanja ngakhale apo, ndipo yakhala ikukhudzidwa mu mikangano yambiri kudutsa zaka zambiri. Kutalika kwambiri kunali nkhondo pakati pa Genoa ndi Pisa (1119-1290).
Nyumba yomwe inkayang'aniridwa ndi Portovenere kuchokera padambo pamwamba pa mudziwu inali chida chofunika kwambiri pa nkhondoyo.
Masiku ano Portovenere ndi njira yopita ku Cinque Terre . Tsiku lililonse pamaulendo oyendetsa m'mphepete mwa nyanja, amapatsa anthu okwera ndege mwayi wokhala ndi malo ochititsa chidwi kwambiri a Mediterranean. Njira yopita ku Cinque Terre imayambanso apa, koma kuyenda ndikutalika ndipo kumayenera kusweka mpaka tsiku limodzi.
Tsiku lathu ku Portovenere linali mvula, tsiku lopweteka, choncho tinakokera m'masula athu. Makoma aakulu a mzindawo anamangidwa mu 1160. Ife tinayamba kuyenda pamsewu wopapatiza kupita ku Tchalitchi cha St. Peter (S. Pietro). Anali pamtunda woyang'anizana ndi Gulf of the Spezia. Ngakhale nyengo ya mvula, Mediterranean m'mphepete mwa tchalitchi inali mtundu wokongola kwambiri. A Geno anamanga tchalitchi ngati mphoto kwa nzika za Porto Venere pofuna kuthandizira kutenga nyumba ya Lerici.
Titatha kuyendayenda mu tchalitchi, tinayamba ulendo wopita ku nsanja. Nyumbazo zinali zosangalatsa, ndipo aliyense anali ndi tile yapadera. Tinadabwa ndi "madzi". Anagwiritsa ntchito ngolo yogwiritsa ntchito mafuta a galasi yomwe inali ndi magalasi a madzi omwe ankawapereka kwa anthu.
Ngoloyo inali kuyenda ngati tanki ndipo ikhoza "kuyenda" mmwamba ndi pansi pamtunda waukulu wa njira za m'mudzi. Zinali zowoneka! Pomwe tinakwera ku nyumbayi, idasiya mvula. Malingaliro a Portovenere m'munsimu anali odabwitsa kwambiri. Nyumbayi inamangidwa koyamba mu 1161, koma inamangidwanso mu 1458.
Pafupi ndi nyumbayi ndizomwe simukupeza pamapu ambiri. Ndi manda akumudzi, ndipo umakhala ndi maonekedwe a nyanja pansipa. Tinapeza manda awa okondweretsa kwambiri. Ambiri a crypts mu mausoleum anali ndi zithunzi za wakufayo, kuyambira zaka zoyambirira za makumi awiri. Zinali zosangalatsa kuona zithunzi za anthu okhala m'manda.
Tinayendayenda kumudzi ndikufufuza masitolo ena. Anthuwa anali achifundo, ndipo anali okondwa kwambiri chifukwa chokhala ndi sitima yathu ndi okwera 114 omwe anali pa doko.
Kuchokera koyambirira kwanga ku Portovenere, ndinadziwa kuti ndi malo osangalatsa kuti ndikhale ndi tsiku. Ine ndinali kulondola. Zonsezi, ndikukondwera kuti tinadabwa ndi Italy!
