There it is, the Basilica of San Luca, such a popular landmark in Bologna, visible from many different places around the city. I caught this beautiful view of San Luca as I came up a hill in the Parco di San Pellegrino. A city park with great views over Bologna as well. #BuonFerragosto! I skipped the beach and went walking in the Bologna hills instead...pretty happy with my choice 👌🏻😎🍃🌼 In a panoramic position overlooking the mountains of Emilia-Romagna's Regional Park of Corno alle Scale, Monteacuto delle Alpi is a delightful mountain village dating from the Middle Ages. It is well preserved and like a journey back in time. About 1.5-2 hours from #Bologna. Can you find the odd one(s) out? This image comes from the Museum of the History of Bologna, which traces 3,000 years in the history of the city, from Etruscan times to the present. There is also a really cool exhibit on view right now which allows you to walk the streets of 13th-century Bologna. Find out all about it through the link in my bio. Hungry? I am 😋 Inviting tortelloni on display at one of my favorite lunch spots for fresh pasta in Bologna. Looking down on the Garisenda Tower from the top of the Asinelli Tower - together they are 'le Due Torri', a beloved symbol of Bologna. See the link in my bio for what you need to know to climb the just re-opened Torre degli Asinelli - great fun and awesome views :)
