As Italy's oldest university town, the city pulses with youthful energy, yet its history runs deep, etched into the towering medieval towers that pierce the skyline. From the grandeur of Piazza Maggiore to the culinary delights that tantalize the senses, Bologna is a feast for the mind and palate.

Did you ever wonder where "bolognese sauce" comes from? Well, this guide is finally going to answer that question! Bologna has so many things to offer I don't even know where to begin. Let me give you some reasons why you should read this guide: - Bologna's Airport (BLQ) and Central train station connect the city to the rest of the country, all of Europe and several international destinations SUPER EASILY - It's not cheap, but definitely cheaper than big cities like Rome, Venice or Florence. Because of its train station you might even consider staying in a smaller town nearby and saving money that way. - You will be able to avoid huge crowds of tourists while experiencing local-living, especially thanks to the thousands of students who attend the University of Bologna. - Whether you also want to spend a few days by the beach or go get some fresh air in the mountains, you will have the chance to do both!
