Emilia Romagna
Emilia Romagna is the porticoes that shelter and shade your way through the streets of the historic centre of Bologna; the infinite, multicoloured sea of umbrellas on the sunny beaches of Romagna; the modern, dynamic and wealthy city, which at the same time is capable of preserving its “human face”; the lengthy coastline, crowded with tourists drawn by the irresistible trinity sun-sea-fun. Emilia Romagna it's all that and probably much more.
Emilia-Romagna is a gigantic treasure house filled with architectural gems and artistic masterpieces, with ancient and famous universities, and modern centres of artistic and cultural learning.

Bologna |
Bologna, considered by Italians the nation's food capital, is one of the most attractive cities of the country. Seat of the oldest university in Europe, is a well administered city and its centre is well preserved even if in parts marred by excessive graffiti. Good destination for a few days' stopover.

 Ferrara |
Ferrara's most famous image is certainly that of its grand Renaissance, the age of splendour of the Estense court, which has left indelible signs everywhere: in the colossal Addizione Erculea project, in the impressive pictorial cycles belonging to the Quattrocento and Cinquecento and in the Last Judgement by Bastianino.
From 1995 on, UNESCO has included the historical centre of Ferrara in the list of World Cultural Heritage as a wonderful example of a town planned in the Renaissance and still keeping its historical centre intact. The town planning criteria expressed in Ferrara had a deep influence on the progress of town planning in the following centuries.
