Emilia-Romagna & San Marino
Urban Cycling
Reggio Emilia was voted Italy's best cycling city. Bologna's cobbled streets can look like
Oxford, and Parma is largely pedestrianised. Best of all are the 9km of Ferrara's old city
walls.
Holy Architecture
Tour the churches for a quick art-history lesson from Ravenna's dazzling Byzantine mosa-
ics, Modena's Romanesque cathedral and Bologna's Gothic-Renaissance Basilica di San
Petronio.
Famous Flavours
Come with an empty stomach and try the most famous flavours: Modena's balsamic,
Parma's ham and cheese, not to mention Bologna's
bolognese ragù
and
mortadella
.
