Part 5/8:
As the sun sets, one of the quintessential ways to wind down in Bologna is by indulging in an aperitivo. Typically served around 7 PM, this culinary experience features an elaborate buffet of savory and sweet treats, including meats, cheeses, and various Italian bites, all to be enjoyed with a refreshing spritz or a glass of regional wine.
Visiting Torre Prendiparte
Another notable tower worth visiting is Torre Prendiparte, located near Saint Peter’s Cathedral. Originally constructed for defense, this tower now allows visitors to ascend its spiral staircase for incredible views of Bologna. The nearby restaurant La Montanara is perfect for grabbing a satisfying meal afterward, famous for its traditional ragu.
