The Cathedral of Christ the Savior is the most unusual landmark of the city. It was constructed in 1913 in a similar way as classical Russian temples of the 19th century.

San Remo is known for its legendary Ariston theater, which is considered a tourist attraction of national importance. Its opening took place more than a hundred years ago. A theater stage and a modern cinema occupy the same historical building. For every resident of Italy visiting this cultural center is a matter of honor. In recent years, the theater has become a permanent venue for various cultural events.
San Remo In the immediate vicinity of the city is an interesting historical district called Bussana-Vecchia. Until the end of the 19th century, this spot was a fairly large and crowded city, which in 1887 was badly damaged by the earthquake. Several thousand people died, and the survivors were forced to look for a new place to build houses. Over 70 years after the earthquake, this town remained abandoned and then began to attract the attention of free artists from various regions of Italy. They had been restoring the dilapidated houses and turned them into art workshops. Nowadays, Bussana-Vecchia is known under the unofficial name City of Artists. The most beautiful architectural monument is Villa Ormond. It was built in the 19th century and is located on the territory of one of the largest parks in the city. This park is well equipped for recreation. It has many old elements of decoration and ancient trees. Not so long ago, a small Japanese garden was planted there.
