The impressive Basilica di San Petronio, one of the largest churches in Europe, is located right there and attracts numerous tourists every year.

For a view of the city, climb the Asinelli Tower, whose viewing platform offers a breathtaking panoramic view of Bologna. The Archiginnasio, the former seat of the University of Bologna, is also worth a visit. Here, those interested can gain insights into the city's intellectual past, while the Anatomical Theater documents the history of medical education.

Romantic flair and nature experiences

Bologna's arcades stretch for many kilometers and not only offer protection from the weather, but also a special atmosphere for romantic walks. Another highlight is the Basilica of Santo Stefano, also known as the “Seven Churches”. The Sanctuary of Madonna di San Luca, located on a hill, can ideally be reached on foot or by taking the San Luca Express and offers spectacular views of Bologna's hilly landscape.

Not to be forgotten are the picturesque Colli Bolognesi, which are just a short drive from the city. There, couples can sample regional wines like Pignoletto and enjoy authentic cuisine while exploring the peaceful countryside.
