This square is almost like a hub to all of the best sightseeing in Bologna. It's the central…read moresquare where a lot of the interesting sights are located. While we were there, they were setting up for some sort of viewing with a huge screen and plenty of seats. I didn't look up what it was for but I assume that because this square is so large and central, they do this sort of thing all of the time. We visited the fountain, the church and the shops and restaurants branching off from this square and we also took the San Luca express from here. Great way to landmark yourself in the city.

I'll add a few notes on some of the notable places to visit in and around this piazza: - Palazzo Re Enzo in April 2024 wasn't open to the public for general viewing, inside are mainly government offices. - Biblioteca Salaborsa: cool library building for history and architecture fans. Aside from the impressive details of the current building. Roman ruins are visible from main library floor and visitable underneath the library. See my separate review for this! - Biblioteca Communale and the Two Towers (Asinelli Tower and Garisenda Tower--not to be confused with LOTR) are about a 5 minute walk from this square. Towards the south for the historical library with a historic anatomical studies operating room, and directly east for the towers. - Signorvino: decent spot to people watch, enjoy some wine and a light meal or charcuterie while taking in the view of the piazza. Indoor and outdoor seating available. - Fontana del Nettuno: ask the locals about the legend around the sea god's sculpture...walk around it to view at different angles...maybe not appropriate for kiddies. - Cinema Modernissimo: recently renovated (end 2023) old school movie theater from 1915 that's underground and on the block next to the piazza. They play Italian classics, and both old and modern movies, tickets starting at €6 and some movies with free entry. All showings book up very quickly, so move fast--as of end June all paid shows were booked up thru end November. Hope anyone reading this enjoys their time in Bologna as much as I did!

Each week offers a slightly different course, leaving room for improvement from previous weeks, but simultaneously introducing new challenges. Every class ends with Shava-asana and my personal favorite part -- the lavender scented eye masks. Now, imagine opening your eyes in a room with light streaming in and with walls covered in frescos. How better to find the beauty of balance?

Tratto distintivo dell'associazione è stato sempre l'ambientalismo scientifico, la scelta, cioè, di fondare ogni iniziativa per la difesa dell'ambiente su una solida base di dati scientifici, che ci hanno permesso di accompagnare le nostre battaglie con l'indicazione di alternative concrete, realistiche, praticabili. Questo, assieme all'attenzione costante per i temi dell'educazione e della formazione dei cittadini, ha garantito il profondo radicamento di Legambiente nella società, fino a farne l'organizzazione ambientalista con la diffusione più capillare sul territorio. In tanti, insieme con lo stesso obiettivo: costruire un mondo migliore. Legambiente Emilia Romagna è una ONLUS iscritta al Registro Regionale delle APS (Atto n. 183 del 13/01/2016).
