The Orange House was an eye-popping surprise.
Vibrant. Friendly. Delicious. Bologna was a savory treat for us during our recent visit.
Eschewing the major tourist magnets for the delights of Bologna was a wise choice. Our days were spent wandering, eating and enjoying the essence of Italy.
A view from the Due Torri gives some clues to the adventures that awaited us.
Museums to feast on, the oldest university in continuous operation in the world and a variety of unique districts to explore made the joy of discovery just a few steps from one to the next.
The MAMbo Museo d'Arte Moderna di Bologna even had its own towering treasure paying homage to the Due Torri.
Porticoes help define the uniqueness of the city. Twenty-four miles of porticoes made walking everywhere a pleasure and surprises with every step added to the many centuries of history.

Even the smallest street was a treat.
This one was jammed with at least 50 scooters and motorcycles under the overhanging security of stonework from many centuries ago.
Yes! We enjoyed it!
