Could not agree with you more about Ravenna.

Great report, thanks.

Looks like a wonderful trip. I would love to take my husband to this region someday as he is a bit hesitant about going to other parts of Italy but would love this region.

Wonderful! Dozza was new to me, so I googled and found the art on the houses:

I'm too lazy to see if you've been there, Flame123, but try to add Monreale near, and Cappella Palatina in Palermo for more mosaics!

We just returned from a trip that included 3 nights in Parma. We really liked the region as well. Food was great including a memorable lunch in Hosteria Giusti in Modena, and visits to a balsamic vinegar producer and a Parmesan cheese cooperative. We had a picnic at the Castle Torrechiria and went to a wine festival on our way to the Piemonte in the medieval town of Castell'Arquato. I would return for sure.

I actually tried getting a reservation at Hosteria Giusti and they never replied to my e-mail. Then when we were already in Bologna, I got a reply but the date and time did not suit us anymore and I had decided that it was not all THAT important for us to eat there. I am sure it is a wonderful experience and one that we may still partake of, in another journey. Glad you all enjoyed my report. It was another truly magical visit to Italy - they always are !!!

Flame123: Thanks for sharing this wonderful trip report. We are already in the planning stages for next spring to Italy and will add Bologna and Ravenna to our list.

We always enjoy reading your trip reports. We've been to many of the same places.
