Bologna, the City of Culture

There is a saying that claims “Bolognese people do not realize how beautiful their city is. Actually, they are well aware of it! Bologna is the result of a magical and alchemical mixture of art and culture. It has 12 city museums, 1 national museum, 4 church museums, 4 private-owned museums, 16 University museums and an invaluable Jewish museums. But it is also a lively cheerful place, brought alive by the thousand of university students who have been flocking to the Alma Mater Studiorum – the oldest University in the world – every since 1088 AD, the year of its establishment.
