Its landscape is varied, with the flat fields of the northern plain giving way to the forest-covered Apennine mountains in the south. Carving a route through the heart of the region is the Via Emilia, a Roman military road built in 187 BC that links the garrison town of Piacenza to Rimini on the coast. Most of the major towns lie along this route including Bologna, the region’s capital. The historic city boasts a rich cultural heritage with its famous porticos, old university buildings and medieval palaces clustered around bustling town squares.
North of Bologna, Ferrara is one of the most important Renaissance centres in Italy, while further inland Modena and Parma are home to some of the region’s finest architecture. Parma also boasts one of the country’s top opera houses. In the east, Ravenna is renowned for the Byzantine mosaics that decorate its churches and mausoleums, and along the Adriatic coast lie various beaches and the seaside resorts of Cervia, Cesenatico and Rimini. A popular summer destination, Rimini has sandy beaches, a lively nightlife, an abundance of bars and restaurants.
