I was originally going to try spend a night here. After looking at the accommodation prices I had decided against it. After talking to some fellow travellers, they suggested leaving my bags at the station and having a look around for a few hours. This turned out to work really well.
Bologna's architecture (and there is a lot of it) is all very red. My favourite part was climbing a 90 something meter tower. I've climbed a lot of stairs in Europe, but climbing the tilted stair cases of this tower had me wondering how stable it was. Plenty of people had been up it before I though, so it was one step after the other.
I was going to try order a Spaghetti Bolagnese (guess where this originated from), but didn't manage to find a suitable place in time.
