    The whole town had this color scheme.
    The two towers, both of which are leaning.Random detail in a random church we went into, built in 1263.First place that has given me pasta as a straw for my spritz.The 7 churches, which is one large church built out multiple times between the 1st and 17th centuryBetween year 80 and 100, it was a temple to Isis. This pillar is from that period.The smaller leaning tower. It's blocked off because it's at risk of collapse. They're repairing it.Tagliatelle al ragù, a classic Bolognese dish. It was amazing.Porticoes going up to the church on the hill.This church let us go up to the front. Gorgeous.Heading back down. The whole path is covered.Mortadella was invented in Bologna. This was also delicious.The path running vertically is from the 1st century. The well on the right is from the 13th.Another Bolognese dish, which we got from a very touristy place.More interesting than Neptune up top imo.The view from the top of the hill.

    Bologna

    Jul 12–15 in Italy ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

    We couldn’t fit Bologna in our last trip to Italy, so we made sure to add it this time. We made the hike from old town to the top of the hill lined by porticoes, which was extra fun since we saw that same hill while watching the Tour de France last year. We also visited the University of Bologna, which was founded in 1088 and is the oldest continuously operating university in the world. Otherwise, we went in with no itinerary and wandered around this very lovely college town.Read more
