Bologne, a serious city

Bologne is small, beautiful city that it is not included yet on the popular touristic tours. It is a very particular city with a special soul because all the streets on the city center have covered walkways known as porticos. This particular feature gives Bologne a very powerful, serious appearance.

Wikitravel says that if you point yourself on the point where several big avenues cross, you can’t see any tree on the streets. It is true, you can just see beautiful, old buildings built with stone. In Bologne is where the oldest Italian university is located, which is also the oldest university in the western world. I’ve been there and it’s impressive. I had a similar thrilling feeling when I visited Pavia’s university. You must feel something different when you go to classes on this old, historic buildings. After listening so many lectures even the old stone walls are full of knowledge.
