The Cineteca<\/strong><\/h2>\nI recommend, for now, a visit to the Lumi\u00e8re cinema<\/strong>, the Cineteca di Bologna<\/strong>, with its beautiful little square in front dedicated to the great Bolognese Pier Paolo Pasolini, and the Renzo Renzi Library<\/strong>. The Cienteca is an actual citadel of audiovisuals: the Fondazione Cineteca di Bologna has, in fact, long been considered a point of reference in Europe and the world for its important work in the preservation, restoration, valorisation and promotion of the cinema of the present and the past. Among other things, it holds the personal archive of Charlie Chaplin<\/strong>!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
DAMS and Umberto Eco<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn Piazzetta Pasolini – the Cineteca’s square – are the university premises of DAMS and, not far away, of Scienze della Comunicazione, the faculty where the semiologist (philosopher, writer, translator…) Umberto Eco taught.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The hills<\/strong><\/h2>\nNatural sites<\/strong><\/h3>\nMade famous by L\u00f9napop, the Bolognese hills have been inhabited for centuries: there are splendid villas, some of which can be visited today. Among the natural attractions, I recommend the Parco della Chiusa<\/strong> – in Casalecchio di Reno -, also known as ‘Talon’, from the name of the marquises who founded it in the 1600s; the Parco dell’Abbazia di Monteveglio<\/strong>, an extensive park where you can walk to the remains of an ancient medieval castle; the ‘calanchi’<\/strong>, towards San Lazzaro di Savena: rock formations with an undulating appearance alternating with caves and hollows. The landscape here seems lunar and is perhaps unique in Italy.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The routes<\/strong><\/h3>\nIf you love trekking, cycling or motorcycling, you can choose from numerous routes in the hills of Bologna.<\/p>\n
There are also some museums: I recommend the Museum of Rural Civilisation<\/strong> and the Hill and Wine Eco-museum<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The food<\/strong><\/h2>\nBolognese cuisine<\/strong><\/h3>\nLastly, inevitable in the ‘fat’ Bulagna, the food! The famous tortellini, lasagne, tagliatelle, the famous boiled meats, IGP mortadella, tigelle and crescentine<\/strong> – the equivalent of gnocco modenese! Moving on to desserts, in addition to the rice cake, you can enjoy the famous mostarda, a jam made from pears and quinces used to prepare pinza<\/strong>, St Joseph’s raviole, Christmas cake and Certosino or Pan Speziale<\/strong>. You will find many restaurants and bars in the centre: there is something for everyone!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Cuisines from around the world<\/strong><\/h3>\nYou can also eat Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Palestinian, Iranian, Korean, Afghan, Greek, Ethiopian-Eritrean… The quality is high, and you can indulge in culinary experiments!<\/p>\n
