Bologna is a beautiful, welcoming city. Stroll around the streets or climb a tower to enjoy the city from above, and you cannot help but notice the delightful palette of yellows, oranges and reds that colour the city. A comprehensive restoration project, initiated in the late 1970s, has thankfully preserved many of the historical buildings and large parts of the core structure of the city\u2019s historical centre. One characteristic feature in Bologna are the beautiful arcades fronting most of the buildings, providing welcome shelter when walking around town, either from the hot sun or a rain shower.<\/p>\n

On Sundays, the two most central shopping streets – Via Rizzoli and Via dell’Indipendenza – are closed to traffic and are perfect for a quiet Sunday stroll. The absence of cars brings a whole new life to these streets on Sundays, with a fascinating variety of street artists keeping you entertained. The major chain stores stay open on Sundays, while most of the smaller shops and stalls in the back streets are closed.<\/p>\n

Bologna is a University city and therefore has a young, urban feel despite its historical facades. In the afternoons and evenings, people gather in the small, narrow streets and outside bars for an aperitive, a bite to eat and perhaps a beer or two later on.<\/p>\n

Travelling to and from Bologna is simple. The city has its own international airport and is also the hub for nine of the main railway lines in Italy. You can travel directly by high-speed train from Bologna to Florence, Milan, Rome and Bari, or to and from most destinations in Italy by ordinary train services.<\/p>\n

When in Bologna, there are several experiences not to be missed. Here is my top-five list of things to do in the city:<\/strong><\/p>\n
