The place to go if you get lost. Sunny, relaxed. Enjoyed it very much. A lot of shops near by, places to eat. Where the adventure begins.
This is the centre of Bologna. It's just a huge space, but can really be packed in the nighttime, especially if the Electric guitarplayer has brought his Motorpsycle.
This is a beautiful piazza.The statue of Neptune is the main attraction.It is quiet and clean.Off the side streets are many stores.Better bring your wallet because they are high end!
Here in Piazza Maggiore you can feel at home or, better, in one of the best places you have ever been. It's the italian atmosphere, it's the italian glamour, it's the italian style, all together. You can see nice architecture in every corner, you can see the magnificent Trito, you can see the impressin Cathedral or Palazzo d'Accursio, of course, everything seated at a bar, hving your coffee and enjoying the sunshine. Is it a dream? No, it is Italy. ;)
I live in this town and I walk through this place everyday and everyday I have the same sensation of space, history, richness and melancholy. I am addicted to Piazza Maggiore, especially during winter nights.
So lovely of a place where the locals hang out on a weekend afternoon. Enjoyed watching the "bubble" man blowing giant bubbles for the local children who laughed and played. And in the evening, a romantic walk through the piazza with the moonlight over the Basilica.
If you stand in Piazza Maggiore and turn slowly around, everything you see has been built prior to 1600...Beautiful setting!
I just love piazza Maggiore.Not too far from it, under the portici in via Dè Musei it is possible to have a nice cocktail and good food ...
Piazza Maggiore ( Great Square) is a place where living is easy and people smiling to you.Dont miss it wehen in Bologna
Nice piazza to relax a bit and admire Neptune and the architecture around. You'll find the tourism office at the building in the center, that's helpful. There's a fountain where you can refresh or just have a drink.
