Visit any Italian city is surprise. Rome, Florence, Milan we receive hundreds of different places to visit. Today we approach the Port of Genoa to ship to the past.

A visit to a galleon Neptune. It is actually a replica built between 1984 and 1985 Pirates, Roman Polanski’s film. It was actually more expensive the set ever built (8 million dollars for a film that did not please the audience) They did it in shipyards Tunisia unpretentious realism because its measures are significantly higher than those of the galleons of the time it develops the argument, 1680.

Thus, the ship is 63 meters long by 16.80 wide and 2.20 draft, weighing 1,500 tonnes (partly because it has a steel inner hull and diesel engines of 400 hp) and a speed of 5 knots.

If you stay at one of the hotels in Genoa, be sure to give you a tour of the harbor and get on the Neptune’s visit costs about 5 euros and if you’re lucky, sometimes makes small tourist trips, to feel a pirate for a time.
