We were only in Bozen 2 days and tried only two of the restaurants. It was fun walking around the city and could have cheerfully done a lot more exploring.
Stunning food stalls in town centre ... less impressed by the "Saturday Market" ( clothes etc) but a picnic sourced from fresh bread, local Speck and salads is stunning....
Have to say I had written off Bozen as a worker day town with nothing to offer prior to visiting, but I was wrong. A most interesting old town and plenty of river walks. The Ritten cable car and railway are not to be missed and are a 10 minute walk from the station. A number of museums make up for a very interesting place.
I spent 4 days here in this city and found it very enjoyable with a pleasant city center, several historical churches, and a shopping district worth a stroll. There are 3 chairlifts (funivia/Seilbahn) just at the edge of the city which transport you to small villages which are worth a look. The Bozen/Bolzano pass gives you free access to most museums as well as all local transport (bus, train and chairlift)
Tyrolean charms meets modern living in the picturesque city of Bozen/Bolzano. The city if filled with charm and character in addition to modern shops and amenities. Churches, markets, back streets, meandering lanes and beautiful buildings can be found in Bozen/Bolzano. You can sample a cappuccino whilst people watching, walk into the cathedral, grab a traditional Italian pizza in a pizzeria, go for an aperitif in one of the many bars in the cities or wonder along the countless hikes and bike trailsVery impressive and always a pleasure to visit.Just watch during the summer months as this City is regarded as one of the hottest in Italy due to the surronding mountain valley. The town has a well connected Train Station and an Airport connecting to Rome.
We wandered in awe around the market place setting up the Christmas market, and surrounding pedestrian only side rides, with beautiful lights & buildings.
Is really lovely and sweet place. Very romantic for couples, and of course is lovely for shooping. We spend only one day in Bolzano and we cannot see a lot of this beautiful city. A lot of germanies and italian culture in one place. People are very friendly for strangers.
This place has it all!!!! Amazing scenery everywhere, beautiful old buildings, modern, clean, friendly people, amazing food and drink, should i go on? for me it's number one.
The restaurants, the people, the amazing little villages to visit. Take your time here, don't rush it! We've been back several times. Get out to the villages and the views. Some are breathtakingly beautiful with views over the Dolomites... agggghhh take me back please!!!
Nice city and I liked that they speak German. The market was quite good. The architecture was beautiful. Not typical Italian.
