We took the bus 30 from Ugo Bassi up to San Michele in Bosca for €1 50 and as well as an enjoyable journey throught the city of Bologna the view from the church is truly amazing. You can see over the whole beautiful city - the best value in Bologna! We could not get inside but contented ourselves with the breath taking view and then hopped on the bus back, this time to the central railway station - same bus. A not to be missed expedition and very cheap.

If the many squares of Modena, this one in my opinion the best one with an spectacular Cathedral and an array of great buildings cafes and restaurants. Absolutely recommended visit

At nighttime, this medieval alley street (part of the Ferrara's historic Jewish Ghetto) transforms from a quiet sidestreet with plenty of old arches (thus, the name) to a magical doorway back to another era. The streetlamps glow and, barring the lack of authentic raw sewage or rotting animal carcases, you could be in the Middle Ages. Most of the old town of Ferrara has been power-washed, steam cleaned and made pretty (which I still enjoyed)... not Via delle Volte; I felt as if I could still sense the thousands of difficult lives who lived in this claustrophobic neighborhood. It was one of my favorite experiences in a recent trip to Italy.

Well worth a visit - old beams above old shops, extremely well preserved, with old pavement. Used to house whole families, together with domestic animals.

The best thing we did in Ferrara was to hire bikes and ride around the outside of the medieval walls. You can also walk along the top of the walls but I'd recommend riding if you have the time. Built mostly between 1493 - 1505, there are 9 km of walls. When they built it, they pulled out all stops to protect the city and used every defensive technique available in the 1400s. You can still many of these defences - city gates, solid bastions, large towers, arrowslits and a patrol path along the top. Smaller semi-circular towers were built at intervals along the path for the sentries. The path is very safe and easy to follow. You ride entirely on shared bike/walking paths (not roads). For the most part, the paths are flat and even with loose gravel (see photos). You can build up a bit of speed if you want. There are no really hilly stretches although there are parts with slight inclines. It is all quite manageable and fun for kids. TIPS: • We hired the bikes from the Hotel Annunciata (Piazza Republica) but that’s only because we were nearby. There are several other places which may or may not be better value or have better bikes. This place had a number of regular bikes available. For half a day, we paid €7pp (€5 if you are a guest). • Take some ID or a passport because you might need to show it to hire a bike • We joined the bike path by riding across the main piazza and exiting via Corsa Porta Reno • Wear older clothes. Even on a sunny day, there were some muddy puddles (there were only a couple but somehow I didn't pre-think this and wore white pants which was not a good idea). • Take a water bottle - there wasn't anywhere to get water.
