Stroll through Bologna, the red city of the Middle Ages.

Bologna is the capital of the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy and has a rich historical and cultural heritage. The city was founded in 534 BC and has many medieval buildings. The University of Bologna adds a strong academic atmosphere to the city. In addition to culture and art, Bologna is also the birthplace of Italian cuisine, where you can experience the real Italian street life. 📍Piazza Maggiore is the main square in the center of Bologna, built in 1200 AD. The square is rectangular in shape and is surrounded by many important buildings, such as the City Hall, the Cathedral, and the Fountain of Neptune, making it an excellent place to experience the atmosphere of Bologna. 📍The Fountain of Neptune is a symbol of Bologna. On the left side of the fountain is the City Hall, and on the right side is the Palazzo Re Enzo and the Palazzo della Podestà. Above the fountain is the image of Neptune holding a spear, and the fountain dates back to the 16th century. 📍The Two Towers are iconic buildings in Bologna, consisting of two adjacent towers, the Torre degli Asinelli and the Torre Garisenda. The towers were built in the 12th century by two noble families of Bologna in a struggle for leadership of the city. The Torre degli Asinelli is 97.2 meters high, while the Torre Garisenda is famous for its steep slope, which is even steeper than the Leaning Tower of Pisa. 📍The Bologna Cathedral is located on Via Indipendenza and is a large Baroque church. Unlike the Basilica of San Petronio, the interior of the church is complex and ornate, dazzling the eye. 📍The Basilica of San Petronio was built in 1390, but it is still not fully completed. The exterior of the church is only half decorated, and some of the walls inside are still unfinished. The church also has the largest sundial in existence, and at noon you can see the sunlight cast on the sundial, showing the date of the day. 📍The Anatomy Theater is an important place for medical education and anatomical research, with a very beautiful interior decoration. The Anatomy Theater dates back to the 16th century and was built by the University of Bologna for anatomical research and teaching. 📍The Bologna Municipal Library is one of the most active libraries in Italy. The decoration is bright and colorful, with an open atrium surrounded by reading and lending rooms. Walking on the first floor, you can see the remains of the ancient city walls through the glass floor. The third floor is the Bologna Planning Exhibition Hall.
