- Piazzetta Prendiparte - A serene, secluded square featuring one of Bologna’s few remaining medieval towers. The Torre Prendiparte, once a power emblem for the city’s noble families, provides a unique view of Bologna’s striking medieval skyline.
- Il Ghetto Ebraico di Bologna - Nestled behind Piazza Maggiore, the Jewish Ghetto is a labyrinth of narrow streets steeped in history. This charming neighborhood was the heart of Bologna’s Jewish community and still reflects its rich past in every corner.
- Piazza Maggiore - The vibrant center of Bologna. Encircled by magnificent medieval and Renaissance architecture, including the Basilica di San Petronio and Palazzo d’Accursio, this grand square has been a gathering place for centuries and continues to be today.
- Archiginnasio di Bologna - The original site of the University of Bologna, the oldest university in the Western world. Its porticoed courtyard and renowned Anatomical Theatre make it one of the most intriguing — yet often overlooked — buildings in the city center.
- Piazza San Domenico - A sophisticated and tranquil square housing the Basilica of San Domenico, where a young Michelangelo left his legacy. Elegant palaces and the tomb of the Dominican Order’s founder create a serene, timeless ambiance.
- Giardini Margherita - Bologna’s most cherished public park, located just beyond Porta Castiglione. A popular spot for locals to jog, cycle, and unwind on the grass. It’s the ideal place to relax, experience everyday Bolognese life, and feel like a true local.
- Piazza Santo Stefano - One of Bologna’s most enchanting squares, shaped by the complex of the Seven Churches — a remarkable collection of interconnected Romanesque basilicas dating back to the 5th century. Quiet, atmospheric, and unlike any other place in the city.
- Finestrella Di Via Piella - Bologna’s best-kept secret: a hidden canal with a small window — the “finestra sul canale” — offering a view reminiscent of Amsterdam. A delightful reminder that Bologna was once a city of waterways, and a perfect final image to cherish.
