About Bologna
Bologna is Italy's culinary capital and home to Europe's oldest university, yet it is consistently overlooked in favour of Florence and Venice. Its 40 km of UNESCO-listed porticoed streets, the medieval towers, and one of Italy's best traditional food markets make it one of the country's strongest short-break destinations.
