Flower stand in Piazza Banchi with the Church of St Peter in the historic centre of Genoa, Unesco World Heritage Site, Liguria, Italy

Located just off one of the most important docks in the city, this was once the site of Genoa’s old grain market, and was known as piazza "dei banchi" in the 12th century due to the money-changers' stalls located under the porticoes of the various buildings.
