2024 Bologna Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)

#oktoberfest I recently celebrated Oktoberfest in Bologna, and it was such a fun twist on the traditional German festival! 🍻 While Bologna is known for its food and culture, they really know how to throw a great Oktoberfest party. The event was held at Parco Nord, and the entrance fee was around €10, which included a beer mug and your first drink. The massive tents were filled with people enjoying live Bavarian-style music, delicious German sausages, and, of course, plenty of beer! The atmosphere was lively, with people dressed in traditional Lederhosen and Dirndls, dancing and toasting all night. Even though it wasn’t Munich, Bologna’s take on Oktoberfest still had that friendly, celebratory vibe. Before heading to the festival, I explored the historic center of Bologna, including the iconic Two Towers and Piazza Maggiore, making it a perfect mix of culture and fun. If you’re in Bologna in the fall, don’t miss this unique celebration! #OktoberfestBologna #BavarianVibes #BeerLovers #ExploreBologna #ItalianOktoberfest #TravelItaly

#spookyhalloween I spent Halloween in Bologna Centro, and it was such a unique way to celebrate! 🎃 The city’s medieval streets created the perfect atmosphere for the spooky holiday. Bologna isn’t as big on Halloween as some other cities, but the local spirit was definitely alive. The historic center was decorated with pumpkins and cobwebs, and many shops and cafes embraced the theme with special treats and decorations. The best part? It’s completely free to explore! I walked through the Piazza Maggiore, where people were dressed in costumes, and some street performers added to the eerie vibe. The old, narrow streets of Bologna made everything feel even more mysterious. After soaking up the Halloween atmosphere, I explored some of the city’s famous landmarks like the Two Towers and Santo Stefano. Spending Halloween here was an unexpectedly fun mix of history, culture, and spooky fun! #HalloweenInBologna #SpookyBologna #BolognaCentro #HalloweenAdventures #TravelBologna #AutumnInItaly

I stayed at Art Hotel Commercianti Bologna during the month of December with a friend, and honestly I cannot think of a better stay in Bologna! The location could not be better, totally unbeatable being just above Piazza Maggiore and close to everything. You can even hear the music events and the bells ringing from the Piazza. The staff was really polite and welcoming, and the hotel itself was beautifully decorated. You can tell that it's a very historic and symbolic hotel of the city. The highlight of our stay was our room, which was spacious and comfortable, but also had an amazing large balcony with breathtaking views to Basilica di San Petronio. I totally recommend booking the option of room with balcony for your stay. The breakfast was very rich and covered any preferences you might have, and the option to have it served it the room was really perfect for us! #luxuryhotel #bologna #italy #italytravel

It's so beautiful, full of artistic atmosphere, with affordable prices and delicious food. It seems like there are mostly Italian tourists, without the feeling of a typical tourist area. My favorite city in Italy!

The Fontana del Nettuno (Fountain of Neptune) has been nicknamed “al Żigànt” in dialect ("the Giant") by the Bolognese because of the size of the statue of Neptune. The fountain made of marble and bronze, was built between 1563 and 1566 by the Flemish sculptor Giambologna on a project by the Italian Tommaso Laureti. It is a symbol of the power of the Pope who ruled the world like Neptune ruled the seas. At the feet of the statue, in fact, lie four little angels, representing Gange, the Nile, the Amazon and Danube, i.e. the rivers of the continents known at the time. The trident of the Neptune's statue inspired and it was used by Maserati brothers as emblem for their first car, the Maserati Tipo 26. The logo was realized in 1920 by one of the brothers, Mario Maserati, at the suggestion of a family friend, Marquis Diego de Sterlich. This is still today the logo of the Maserati car company. The fountain and its sculpture are one of the most iconic symbols of the city and references to them can be found in many symbols, commercials and logos. This includes the historical students' fraternity (Goliardia) "Excelsa Neptuni Balla", on whose emblem figure two tridents. The Bolognese anecdote also tells of a particular expedient implemented by Giambologna, who intended to find a way to make Neptune with realistic genitals, without being discovered and admonished by the Church. The sculptor designed the statue in such a way that from a particular angle the thumb of Neptune's outstretched hand seems to emerge directly from the lower abdomen, making him suggest the (erect) genital; as proof of the same, in the pavement of the square there is a black stone, also called "of shame" placed in a very specific point in piazza del Nettuno (to be precise at the foot of the entrance stairway to the Salaborsa library) which facilitates its vision. #travelinspiration #momentsmission #decembertravel # #unforgettableexperiences #scenicspotguide #summervacation #springholiday

The Basilica of San Domenico in Bologna this is not too known to tourists, yet it’s one of the richest churches in Bologna in art history. It was erected by the Dominican Friars as a place to store the remains of San Domenico di Guzman, founder of the order and who arrived in Bologna around 1200. Inside there are priceless works of art by authors such as Guercino, Filippino Lippi and Ludovico Carracci. In the Chapel of San Domenico stands the ark embellished with sculptures by Michelangelo, Nicola Pisano, Alfonso Lombardi and surmounted by a marble cornice modelled in 1469-73 by Niccolò da Puglia called “dell’Arca”, also author of the Lamentation over the Dead Christ (Compianto sul Cristo Morto) preserved in the church of Santa Maria della Vita. The masterpiece of Renaissance inlay is the wooden choir of Fra’ Damiano da Bergamo, defined by contemporaries as the eighth wonder of the worldand also admired by emperor Carlo V. The church also has a bell tower, erected in 1313 in Gothic style and 51 metres high. While the Convent of San Domenico houses a private theological university and the Library with a heritage of 90.000 volumes that span from Dominican philosophy, to Dominican theology, history and spirituality. #awesomepic#unforgettableexperiences#museumquest#newphotographer#historicculture#urbanexplorer

Walking around Giardini Margherita is one of the most relaxing things you can do in Bologna, especially during the sunset. The park is nice and there’s a chalet on the pond where you can have a coffee and relax. The pond is filled with fish, turtles, ducks and swans. If you can, bring something to feed them (although they never go hungry). On the hillside of the park, there are a basketball and a volleyball fields, and during spring/summer trampolines and cotton candy! #beautifulsunsets #travelinspiration #unforgettableexperiences #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #naturalwonders

Giardini Margherita is the most popular park in Bologna as well as the largest covering 26 hectares. It’s quite common for the locals to meet and relax there during the weekends, or enjoy a refreshing drink/ice cream/granita during the summer. Inaugurated in 1879 as Passeggio Regina Margherita, the park still maintains most of its original layout inspired by the English Romantic parks. While the park was being laid out, an Etruscan burial ground was discovered where the magnificent travertine grave at the side of the central lawn was found. On the southern side of the pond there is a short open-air stretch of the ancient Savena canal (1176), one of the waterways that once characterized the city. #triplocal #instagramworthydestinations #scenicspotguide #bologna #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #triplocal

The Fountain of Neptune, nicknamed “Al Żigànt”, “the giant", in the bolognese dialect by the locals because of Neptune’s size, is located in Bologna in Piazza del Nettuno. It was build and completed between 1563 and 1565 by the Palermitan architect Tommaso Laureti. The statue was an early design by Giambologna. In the centre of the tank of the fountain, there is a base where there are four Nereids holding their breasts, from which jets of water emerge. The base is decorated with pontifical emblems, ornaments that - connected to four cherubs - hold dolphins (which are allegorical representation of major rivers from the then-known corners of the world: the Ganges, the Nile, the Amazon River, and the Danube. In the centre of this base raises the majestic figure of the Neptune sculpted by Giambologna's; the statue is a typical expressions of the manneristic theatricality. The Neptune stretches his left hand in a lordly gesture, appearing to be aiming to placate the waves; this posture is interpreted as symbolic exaltation of the new power of the Pope Pius IV: just as Neptune was the master of the seas, the Pope was the master of Bologna and of the world. A local anecdote also tells of a particular expedient put in place by Giambologna, who intended to find a way to make Neptune with the larger genitalia, without being discovered and admonished by the Church originally made him censor the statue. The sculptor designed the statue in such a way that from a particular angle the thumb of the outstretched hand of Neptune seems to appear directly from the lower abdomen, suggesting an erect genital. As proof of it, in the pavement of the square there is a black stone, also called "of shame" placed in a very specific point (at the foot of the entrance staircase of the Salaborsa library). The fountain is an icon, reflected in symbols, commercials and logos. The trident inspired the Maserati’s logo. #instagramworthydestinations #unforgettableexperiences #deliciousfood #urbanexplorer

The University of Bologna, called “Alma mater studiorum - Università di Bologna” or shortened in UNIBO is the oldest university in the world. Although it existed before its creation in 1088, it is in 1088 that is was structured, hence founded, as an organised guild of students (hence studiorum), creating the modern concept of university and the first place of study to use the term universitas for the corporations of students and masters. Still to this day, it is one of the leading academic institutions in Italy and Europe. It is one of the most prestigious Italian universities, commonly ranking in the first places of national rankings. “Via Zamboni” has been made during the 19th century the Main Street for students as they can find many faculties and libraries but also cafes and pubs to enjoy the typical student life (movida). Many of the buildings are worth visiting and you might find some hidden museums and treasures. Otherwise, when in Bologna, just take a walk and stroll along the street and enjoy the vibe. #instagramworthydestinations #travelinspiration #awesomepic #uniqueexperience #university #unforgettableexperiences #bologna #urbanexplorer #scenicspotguide

Bologna is the largest city (and the capital) of the Emilia-Romagna Region in Northern Italy. It is the seventh most populous city in Italy, located in the heart of a metropolitan area (officially recognized by the Italian government as a metropolitan city) of about one million. The first settlements date back to at least 1000 BC. The city has been an urban center, first under the Etruscans (Velzna / Felsina) and the Celts (Bona), then under the Romans (Bononia), then again in the Middle Ages, as a free municipality (for one century it was the fifth largest European city based on population). Home to the oldest university in the world, University of Bologna, founded in 1088, Bologna hosts thousands of students who enrich the social and cultural life of the city. Famous for its towers and lengthy porticoes, Bologna has a well-preserved historical center (one of the largest in Italy) thanks to a careful restoration and conservation policy which began at the end of the 1970s, on the heels of serious damage done by the urban demolition at the end of the 19th century as well as that caused by wars. An important cultural and artistic center, its importance in terms of landmarks can be attributed to a varied mixture of monuments and architectural examples (medieval towers, antique buildings, churches, the layout of its historical center) as well as works of art which are the result of a first class architectural and artistic history. Bologna is also an important crossroad transportation for the roads and trains of Northern Italy, where many important mechanical, electronic and nutritional industries have their headquarters. According to the most recent data gathered by the European Regional Economic Growth Index (E-REGI) of 2009, Bologna is the first Italian city and the 47th European city in terms of its economic growth rate. #mynovgetaway #thanksgiving #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving

I thought I had seen all the most beautiful cities in Italy, but Bologna touched me with its beauty. This city not far from Florence and Parma is a little jewel. A student city, it is very lively during the day as well as in the evening, except maybe in summer. There are lots of things to visit starting with the famous leaning towers Asinelli and Garisenda. Don't forget to buy your tickets online. I really liked to climb on the Asinelli tower to see the city from 360° but also on the terrace of the Basilica of San Petronio which gives you another point of view and especially the one of the leaning towers. Bologna is recognizable by the red color of the buildings, which brings a lot of charm to the city. I also visited it at sunrise to see it differently. It was a real pleasure to walk there with no tourist. Last thing to do before leaving it, go and see the last remaining canals. One of these canals is on the Via Piella. There is a small window that will give you a view of part of the canal. #awesomepic #unforgettableexperiences #travelinspiration #instagramworthydestinations

Bologna in Italy is also one of the most interesting city I have ever been in. The city which very strong in culture offers great variety of amazing food and wine. Take a look around the original architecture design of the city and the tower in the middle of the city is also amazing. Overall, I love staying here. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

#bologna is a city in central #italy and it is famous because nearby there are some speed cars manufacturers. I did not visit it because them but because the historical sights and the architecture. I really enjoyed the old style buildings and also the view from the top of the old tower of Bologna. It really worth a visit. #happynewyear

😎The Basilica of San Petronio is located in the center of Bologna, Italy. It is 132 meters long, 60 meters wide, 45 meters high in the center, and 51 meters high on the front facade. It can accommodate 28,000 people for worship at the same time. It is the largest brick church in the world and ranks fifth among the world's rectangular churches. 😏This church was originally planned to be the largest church in the world, surpassing St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. Unfortunately, after a century of construction, the Pope suddenly stopped the construction project, so it became the unfinished appearance it is today. However, it is these unfinished traces that make visitors seem to see the traces of historical dust left on the building, and they can feel the weight of time. 🤩 When you walk into this basilica, you will find that the decoration inside the church is not as gorgeous as you imagined. Some walls still retain an unfinished state, like a painter suddenly stopped painting, making people full of imagination. There are 22 small chapels around the main altar, each of which is like a mysterious little world waiting for people to explore. 🧐 There is also a very famous place here - the Music Chapel. The organ built by Lorenzo da Prato in 1470 is a highlight 🌟, and it is one of the oldest organs in the world still in use. Imagine the melodious sound of the organ echoing in the empty hall, doesn't it feel like your soul has been baptized? The wonderful sound seems to travel through time and space, telling the past of this church. The Piazza Maggiore where the basilica is located is also not to be underestimated. Although the square is not large, the arcades built around it are unique. One side is a nunnery, and the other two sides are open to the street. Moreover, there are many arcades in Bologna that originated from ancient Roman times. Walking around is like walking in the long river of history. 🚶 If you are interested in architecture, there are some small surprises in the architecture here. For example, the basilica has one of the largest sundials in the world. When the sun shines down at noon, it can show the date of the day, which is amazing. 😃 The Basilica of San Petronio is open for free, where you can enjoy the beauty of the integration of history and religion. The opening hours are 07:45 - 19:00 (church), and the top is open from 10:30 - 18:30. Photos cost 2 euros, and the top is 3 euros. 💰 The Basilica of San Petronio is a rare feast for the eyes and soul, and it is well worth a visit. 💖

Explore the Archaeological Museum of Bologna: A Chapter of Time In the heart of Bologna, next to Piazza Maggiore, stands a cultural treasure trove - the Civic Archaeological Museum. When I came here, it was like a deep historical elder, slowly unfolding the picture of the past years to me. Walking through the museum, the artifacts of the Etruscan, Ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman periods are displayed in an orderly manner, each with its own unique charm. The collection here is dazzling, from exquisite sculptures to delicate mosaics, the richness is beyond imagination, and even the corners are filled with the breath of history. In the interactive exhibition area of the ancient Roman baths, I seemed to travel through thousands of years, transformed into an ancient Roman citizen, personally experiencing the layout and function of the baths, feeling the rhythm of life in that era. The ancient Egyptian exhibition area is like the mysterious Nile River, and the detailed explanation of the amulet seems to be telling an ancient spell, fascinating, and every inch of gaze is a deep dialogue with the mysterious civilization. Admittedly, the language barrier once stood in the way, and the all-Italian introduction left me at a loss. But the power of technology has made communication cross borders, and with a stable network signal and convenient translation tools, I was able to overcome the obstacles and continue exploring. Although the Roman exhibition hall is still in its infancy, it is like a budding flower, full of expectations for the future, making people can't help but imagine its stunning appearance when we meet again. This trip to the Archaeological Museum of Bologna was a feast of knowledge and a baptism of the soul. In this world, history is no longer words in books, but a tangible reality. It made me understand that the inheritance of culture transcends time and space, and every artifact is a witness and narrator of history, and I am fortunate to listen, with this precious memory, looking forward to the next time to continue the unfinished fate with it, continue to trace the source in the long river of history, and explore more treasures sealed by time.
