Boasting one of the country’s great medieval cityscapes – an eye-catching ensemble of red-brick palazzi, Renaissance towers and 40km of arcaded porticoes – Bologna is a fantastic city! As Italy’s culinary capital, it’s an attractive, animated place with a large student population to ensure a vitality that’s so often missing in smaller towns.
Bologna is described as 'la dotta, la grassa e la rossa' - the learned, the fat and the red. The city claims to have laid the intellectual foundations of Italy with the oldest university in the Western world and is universally praised as the country's gourmet capital.
While crowds of tourists fill other parts of Italy, Bologna remains relatively quiet in comparison. This town is charming, historic and fun to explore. A historical city with around 800,000 inhabitants on the metro area, it is the capital and largest city of Emilia-Romagna (a region in northern Italy) famous for architecture and porticos theatre and nightlife. It is considered second only to Venice in beauty by many and certainly has one of the largest and best-preserved historic centers among Italian cities. Its architecture is noted for its palette of terracotta reds, burnt oranges, and warm yellows, hence the name of Bologna la rossa. The extensive town center, characterized by miles of attractive covered walkways known as "porticos," is one of the best-preserved in Europe.
