Travel notes from Bologna-3 best places to visit in Bologna

When it comes to travel there are lots of places to see.  Bologna  is a a beautiful  place to go for a holiday in fact is doesn’t even matter which season it is. The  best way for you to get out and about in Bologna is to  hire a car. That way you can just  cruise round the area Or if you feel like splashing out a little then you could book  a car with a driver included, Which will make navigating the area very simple.
It  is situated within an hours drive to the east via coastal route it is located  between  Florence and also Milan.Bologna will give you that authentic feeling that you probably will not get  in other locations for example in  Venice and  Florence. It doesn’t  make any difference  if you are here for a day or a month , You will love the place but i would suggest giving yourself a few days to see all the sights around this old town.

The three places that come highly recommended on a  visit to Bologna are.

 1.Piazza Maggiore-This is the main Bologna plaza  Piazza Maggiore there are so many things you need to visit while you are here especially the Basilica of San Petronio. Apparently this church is supposed to have been possibly the largest church anywhere in the world, Unfortunately the  Vatican heard about it  and the construction was stopped.

This is now a preferred gathering area for the Bolognese they gather around within the  shadow at the statue of Neptune – This is a Bologna symbol – It also has Basilica of San Petronio (this is dedicated to this city’s patron saint)

piazza has an unforgettable  atmosphere completely unique, You really need to have visited  here to be able to understand the feeling.  Not forgetting a wonderful location for just enjoying a nice cup of coffee.

 2.San Luka–

When walking along this route you will meet lots of locals they walk here rugularly or just use it to keep fit by running to the top and then strolling down once again. They have a  procession every year which goes to Cathedral San Pietro from the centre of Bologna which goes towards the sanctuary of San Luca using the route known as the portico walkway.

3.In Bologna enjoy having a  spritz-this  drink has been made two drinks Prosecco and Aperol

You also get full access  to an exquisite buffet, this is normally served around  7 pm, you can fill up your plate as many times as you like!

No matter how long or short is your stay in Bologna hope you get to enjoy yourself and create some nice and remarkable memories. And I also hope that you will do in comfort by renting a car or booking a car with a driver, which will take you anywhere you want to go .

So there you are arriving in the most popular city , that you can not drive around.But you can still arrive on a car to Venice. You can easily rent a car and return it when you arrive. You can also treat yourself and rent a car with a driver, which will make it very comfortable and easy for you, then after you have spend a few unforgettable days there you can get collected again by your driver and enjoy the rest of your stay in Italy. There is no other place like Venice and whether you arrive here on car or not there are 3 places, that you must see no matter what. 1.Piazza San Marco-Just standing in the middle of this square is an experience in itself.  This is  the widest  flat, open land in the  waterborne city, San Marco Piazza is and was also one of the most  meeting places for all the  Venice citizens and also a  designers showcase for Venice. It is a very impressive place  whether you are  approaching it from the sea, or elsewhere this is a legacy that has been passed down throughout the centuries The centerpiece of this amazing place is the  piazza Which is in fact the Grand St. Mark’s Basilica. This church is amazing  in fact it was built  Byzantine-Venetian way is also a mix of eastern and western style. They called it  Church of Gold due to its opulence and style,  Hope you get a chance to enjoy a nice meal here under the moonlight and simply soak up the atmosphere, that is impossible to find anywhere else. 2. Get around in a gondola-going to Venice and not going around on a gondola would be a waste of an opportunity of a lifetime. Soaking up the rich history and architecture of the beautiful buildings is an experience, that you would like.I can almost see you enjoying the ride along the canals. If you are feeling adventurous you can also try to learn to ride a gondola yourself. Venice has only one Venice has only one rowing school for tourists.This would be a truly an experience of a lifetime, because as well as learning to ride you will also learn a bit of history, which you will enjoy as well.  3. The Campanile-It is nearly 99 ,m one of this city’s tallest building’s It was first built somewhere between the year 888 & 912. The way it is at present, with a stone spire and also with a gilded angel on the top of it, This angel dates way back to 1514. On July in 1902 the building  imploded completely collapsed  into a neat pile of rubble;Luckily the one victim of this disaster was a cat. They  rebuilt  it again exactly ‘as it had been before, in the exact same location’, The way the town council had promised to.

No matter how long you are staying in Venice besides visiting St. Mark’s Basilica and enjoying a gondola ride by simply going there you experience one of the most historic and character rich cities in Europe. 

Once you have finished your stay you can rent a car again or simply book a car with driver to continue your travel or get to the airport.
