The Two Towers, "Le due torri", both of them leaning, are the symbol of Bologna, and probably the most prominent one. Until 1919, there were actually 5 towers in this square. Bologna was always known as the city of towers, “La Turrita”, as over the centuries, particularly between the 12th and the 13th century, the city had possibly over 200 towers.Almost all them were tall (the highest being 97 m), defensive stone towers. There are now 25 towers left without counting the hundreds of bell towers in the city.The taller one of the pair is called the Asinelli while the smaller but more leaning tower is called the Garisenda. Their names derive from the families which are traditionally credited with constructing them between 1109 and 1119.The Asinelli Tower was used by the scientists Giovanni Battista Riccioli (in 1640) and Giovanni BattistaGuglielmini (in the following century) for experiments to study the motion of heavy bodies and the earth rotation. Bologna’s towers were cited several times by Dante in the Divine Comedy and The Rhymes (a confirmation of his stay in Bologna), and by Goethe in his Italian Journey. The Two Towers have also been the subject of an eponymous poem by Giosuè Carducci as part of the Barbarian Odes. Charles Dickens wrote about the towers in his Pictures from Italy.In World War II, between 1943 and 1945, it was used as a sight post: during bombing attacks, four volunteers took post at the top to direct rescue operations to places hit by Allied bombs.Later, a RAI television relay was installed on top.Architect Minor Yamasaki is thought to have been inspired by the Towers when designing the World Trade Center during the 1960s.

Friends who like the car are worth a visit! The train takes to modena, the station comes out, there is a bus station on the right hand side, and you can wait at the fourth platform on the outermost side. The train can ask the i inquiry office next to it. 12 euros round trip.

The Palazzo del Podestà, in Piazza Maggiore, was the first site of the city government exercised by the mayor, his judges and officials. The Torre dell’Arengo was immediately erected alongside, a bell tower used to muster the citizens in the case of extraordinary events.Of great interest is the Voltone del Podestà with its unique acoustic effect that permits visitors to speak to each other from the opposite corners of the archway.The facade was added by Giovanni II Bentivoglio and Ginevra Sforza during their “reign” of the city. On the arches you can spot the symbols of all the noble families (and the guilds) that participated and paid, some no longer exist.

The Cathedral of the Virgin Mary is really well-deserved and magnificent. We queued for a long time to enter. There were a lot of people when we entered, but it was really worth visiting. You can see the scenery of the entire Florence city from a high distance.

The square of Machollère is located in the center of Bologna, built in 1200, to the north is two medieval palaces built in the early 13th century, and to the south is the cathedral of St. Peterronio, which was built in 1390 AD and has not yet been completed. In the middle of the square is an open-air cinema with movies (and advertisements) every night. Bologna is my favorite Italian city, with simple and elegant architecture, clean and tidy. There is the first university in Europe, the University of Bologna. Bologna is a wealthy city, Ferrari, Maserati and other famous car brands were born here.

If you are keen to learn and appreciate artwork, would definitely recommend; if you are not, it might be a bit boring. Before going to the Uffizi Gallery, I would recommend you to study some basic historical and cultural background of Italy and Florence so that you can have a better understanding and visual experience in the gallery. Enjoy!

Ester Castle is also a very historical building, the castle is surrounded by a lot of rich resources, the type of visit here is quite interesting, it is also a rare building in Venice, the surrounding plants are very neat, I like the style here.

This is a very interesting gallery with many fantastic pieces but a relatively small gallery compared to the Uffizi. Most people go to see David, which is magnificent. You can probably walk around the whole gallery in a couple of hours unless you are into great detail.
