Bologna | Foodie Capital of Italy

Bologna is for foodies.  It’s called “La Grassa” (the fat one) for a reason.  Think tortellini, lasagna and ragu' alla bolognese.

Many great photographers call Bologna their favorite Italian city for its colorful architecture, miles of arcades covering bustling sidewalks. Perhaps also because it’s a place a photographer can escape mainstream tourism and and be immersed in a vibrant and metropolitan town.

You’ll eat at a variety of restaurants and taste wines of the region along with famous delights of the Emilia Romagna region: prosciutto, parmigiano and balsamico.
