One Day in Bologna, Bologna, Italy

One country in the world that I will never get bored of exploring is Italy — no matter how many times I visit, it will never seize to amaze me. Let me share with you my experience of spending one day in Bologna. For my Easter break I was looking at visiting a close by destination, a short getaway from Athens and since during my last trip I visited Rome, Florence, Siena and San Gimignano this time round flying into the Emilia-Romagna region seemed like a great idea. I booked my tickets with Ryanair and actually the morning flight is a convenient option as by noon I was already enjoying my first Italian cappuccino at the Piazza Maggiore. 

Bologna is not only a historically attractive capital and the 7th most popular city in Italy but it is also a foodies heaven. The Emilia-Romagna region is especially famed for its Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, Prosciutto di Parma and the Balsamic Vinegar. One of the Bologna Day Trips which you might like to consider is a Food and Ferrari Tour.

The best place to start your day in Bologna is at the Piazza Maggiore where you can soak in the lively atmosphere by enjoying a cup of coffee or an Aperol Spitz(more on that later, so keep on reading) in the surrounding of the city’s most important historical monuments. ......
