Here is our selection of the absolute wonders not to be missed around the city during your stay.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Perched on the Colle della Guardia, the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca<\/strong> has watched over Bologna for centuries and is one of the city’s most beloved spiritual and landscape symbols.<\/p>

To reach it, you walk through a unique architectural masterpiece: the longest continuous portico in the world, which with its 666 arches<\/strong> winds for nearly 4 kilometers<\/strong> starting from Porta Saragozza.This extraordinary route was born to be tackled entirely on foot<\/strong>, combining its monumental aspect with a deep intimate and spiritual dimension<\/strong>.<\/p>

This evocative covered walkway, today a UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/strong>, accompanies those who cross it on a fascinating uphill journey that culminates in the churchyard of the Baroque basilica. From up here, you can enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view that sweeps from the red roofs of the city to the peaks of the Apennines and the surrounding plain, offering a reward of pure beauty at the end of the journey. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Immersed in the hills of Imola, Dozza<\/strong> is a true open-air museum<\/strong>, counted among the most beautiful villages in Italy (Borghi pi\u00f9 belli d’Italia)<\/strong>. Its charm lies in the perfect combination<\/strong> of medieval history and contemporary art<\/strong>: the facades of the houses are decorated with splendid murals<\/strong> painted by internationally renowned artists during the famous Biennale of the Painted Wall (Biennale del Muro Dipinto)<\/strong>.<\/p>

Dominating the village stands the majestic Sforza Castle (Rocca Sforzesca)<\/strong>, a perfectly preserved medieval fortress that contains furnished rooms, prisons, and sentry walkways.
