Italia es un destino conocido para los amantes de la comida, y Bolonia se encuentra en el epicentro del corazón culinario del país. Esta ciudad histórica, la capital de la región de Emilia-Romaña, es un lugar donde comer con razón puede considerarse un pasatiempo local, y una de las principales razones por las que la gente la visita. Los recorridos gastronómicos en Bolonia y sus alrededores incluyen delicias locales como el prosciutto de la cercana Parma, el queso Parmigiano-Reggiano de nuez y el famoso vinagre balsámico de la ciudad de Módena, a solo 45 kilómetros (28 millas) de distancia. Camine por los coloridos mercados de alimentos de la ciudad con una guía para descubrir qué hay en los menús de toda la ciudad, o aprenda los secretos de la cocina italiana de la mano de chefs expertos durante una clase de cocina. Cuando necesite un descanso de tanto comer, realice un recorrido a pie o un paseo guiado en bicicleta por el centro histórico de Bolonia para ver la Basílica de San Petronio y la Fuente de Neptuno (Fontana del Nettuno) en la Piazza Maggiore, las dos torres inclinadas medievales y el Universidad de Bolonia, fundada en 1088 d.C. por sus propios estudiantes. Para los lugares más lejanos, haga una excursión de un día a las ciudades cercanas de Bazzano y Vignola; los bonitos pueblos del Valle de Reno; o las fábricas donde Lamborghini, Pagani y Ferrari fabrican sus autos deportivos.
As with most of Italy, spring and fall are the most pleasant times to visit Bologna. When Italian beach season starts in midsummer, Bologna empties out due to scorching temperatures. The city reels in summer with a week of hundreds of outdoor screenings of rare and restored films during the Cinema Ritrovato Festival—a great way to beat the heat.
Known as La Grassa (The Fat Lady), Bologna has long been a foodie mecca, but the city offers more than just unforgettable meals. This university town has a lively center where medieval towers and churches loom above student-packed cafes. Italy’s Motor Valley (home to Ferrari and Lamborghini) sits just outside the city.
...MásIt’s all about food in Bologna, and dining, tastings, and gourmet strolls draw most visitors. In addition to tucking into heaping plates of tortelloni, you can visit Piazza Maggiore and its San Petronio Basilica, climb the Two Towers for sky-high views, and dive into the historic university district.
...MásYes. Especially if you want to sample some of the best food in Italy or experience a city bustling with more residents than tourists. By train, Bologna is 40 minutes from Florence and less than 90 minutes from Venice, an easy respite from the hordes at those two destinations.
...MásYou can see Bologna’s most important sights in a day, though you’ll need more time if you use the city as a base for visiting the automotive museums and factories in Motor Valley or for touring the nearby Food Valley to sample Parmigiano-Reggiano, prosciutto di Parma, and balsamic vinegar.
...MásYes. Though locals don’t call it Bolognese, which, in Italian, simply means anything or anyone from Bologna. Instead, order up a plate of tagliatelle al ragù to sample the city’s legendary ribbons of fresh egg pasta tossed in a rich meat sauce that's been simmered for hours.
...MásWith its endless network of porticoes (recently listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site), Bologna is a city made for wandering. You can follow the porticoed walkways from the city center all the way up to the hilltop Sanctuary of the Madonna of San Luca for views over the city.
