Walking Around Bologna
by: Jakob Jelling

Bologna is designed in such a way that allows visitors
and tourists to meet many of its main buildings,
monuments, parks and attractive areas by walking to
them due to the short distance which separates them
from the city's center. This characteristic makes bologna
unique and charming as well as allows visitors to enjoy
the environment and its essence by going from one
point to another.

This Italian city’s population is of about 390.000 and is
characterized by having ancient walls which separate
the central area from the rest of the city. This city does
not receive a great amount of visitors at any particular
season of the year, but it does receive many visitors in a
constant basis.

Bologna contains to main squares, the Piazza Maggiore
and the Piazza del Nettuno, located at the central area
of the town. From them, tourists can easily walk to most
of the other most interesting areas of Bologna. Both of
these squares are a must for visitors since they are not
only historical but also very beautiful.

Piazza Maggiore is located at the centre of the oldest
area of the city, and is a place very interesting for
tourists to visit while being at Bologna. This square is
surrounded by some of bologna's most interesting
historic buildings, some of them dating from époques
such as the Renaissance or even the medieval times.
Piazza Nettuno is characterized by having the Fontana
di Nettuno, a beautiful and historical fountain located at
its central area.

Another must place for tourists to visit while being in
bologna is its main church. This church is the Basilica di
San Petronio and is considered to be among the five
largest churches of the entire world. Another great
building to visit is the University of Bologna, the oldest
university of Europe and one of the most valued within
the entire world as well.

Besides its historical buildings and spots, Bologna also
offers visitors the chance to meet many other places
and enjoy several other activities, by going to local
restaurants, cafes, and pubs for example. Although the
hotel offer in bologna is very wide and varied, it is
always recommendable to book before going since this
city receives a great amount of tourists all year around
and it might be difficult to find a hotel room sometimes.
