Bologna is the capital of the Emilia Romagna region, in northern Italy, and is known as “La Dotta and la Grassa” (which means “The Educated and the Fat”) for being one of the main cultural hubs in the country and Italy’s foodie city!

Bologna hosts the oldest university in the Western world Hidden as well as some of the best Italian food, but it has a lot more to offer: from a historic center with charming canals and narrow streets to old churches, museums, and squares, etc.
