Leave a comment

Shereen Shabnam

During a recent visit to Emilia-Romagna, we found some extra time in Bologna, a captivating city that seamlessly blends history, culture, and gastronomy and it brought back many memories of both recent and past visits to this vibrant part of Italy.

Bologna offers travelers a captivating mix of architectural marvels, vibrant markets, and mouthwatering culinary delights. We take you on a journey through what we feel are the best places to visit in Bologna.

Piazza Maggiore

Start your exploration of Bologna at Piazza Maggiore, the city’s main square and a bustling hub of activity. Admire the magnificent Basilica di San Petronio, one of the largest churches in the world, and marvel at the intricate architecture of the Palazzo dei Banchi and Palazzo d’Accursio. The square is also home to the iconic Fountain of Neptune, a symbol of Bologna’s artistic and cultural heritage.

The Towers of Bologna

Embark on a journey to the sky by climbing the Asinelli Tower, the tallest of Bologna’s iconic leaning towers. Enjoy panoramic views of the cityscape and surrounding hills, and learn about the intriguing history behind these medieval structures. For those seeking a less crowded experience, the Garisenda Tower offers an equally enchanting ascent.

Basilica di San Domenico

Step inside the Basilica di San Domenico and immerse yourself in a world of religious devotion and artistic grandeur. Admire the stunning works of art, including the tomb of Saint Dominic, adorned with masterful sculptures and precious marble. The peaceful ambiance of this sacred site offers a serene respite from the bustling city streets.

Archiginnasio of Bologna

Experience the rich academic heritage of Bologna at the Archiginnasio, once home to the prestigious university. Marvel at the intricately decorated anatomical theater and the historic library, filled with ancient manuscripts and scholarly treasures. This magnificent building is a testament to Bologna’s intellectual prowess throughout the centuries.

Mercato di Mezzo

No visit to Bologna is complete without indulging in its culinary delights. Head to the Mercato di Mezzo, a vibrant food market filled with stalls offering fresh produce, regional delicacies, and traditional dishes. Sample local favorites like tortellini, mortadella, and tagliatelle al ragù, accompanied by a glass of local wine. Let your taste buds embark on a gastronomic journey through the flavors of Bologna.

Santo Stefano Basilica

Escape the bustling streets and find tranquility at the Santo Stefano Basilica, a complex of seven interlinked churches. Wander through the peaceful cloisters, admire the ancient architecture, and soak in the spiritual ambiance of this hidden gem. The courtyards and hidden corners offer a serene retreat for contemplation and relaxation.

Bologna’s rich history, vibrant culture, and culinary delights make it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking an authentic Italian experience. From the grandeur of Piazza Maggiore to the flavors of Mercato di Mezzo and the serenity of Santo Stefano Basilica, this enchanting city offers a wealth of treasures to explore.

Immerse yourself in the charm of Bologna, and let its architectural wonders, cultural heritage, and mouthwatering cuisine leave an indelible mark on your travel memories. We flew to Bologna with Turkish Airlines via Istanbul which allowed us to have a stopover holiday as well with seamless connections and ideal travel times.
