Destination - Bologna (BLQ)

Bologna, capital of Emilia-Romagna, is celebrated for miles of UNESCO-listed porticoes, medieval towers, and Italy's oldest university. Wander Piazza Maggiore, climb the Asinelli Tower, and browse lively markets. The city is also a culinary powerhouse-think tagliatelle al ragu, mortadella, and local wines. Bologna makes an excellent base for day trips to Modena, Parma, and Florence.
