EMILIA ROMAGNA ACCOMMODATION

Emilia Romagna is famous throughout the world because of the great Parmigiano Reggiano, the parmesan cheese made in Parma, the balsamic vinegar of Modena, Ferrari cars of Modena and also because of its fabulous salamis and prosciutto ham. Parma has a saying: "The pig is like Verdi's music, there's nothing to throw away."

This region is the place to eat to your heart’s content where the assortment of prosciutto and salamis is never ending. The cheese is to die for and in Parma you can visit the factory to see the cheese making process. Bologna, the capital is a city rich in its associations with all that is great in Italian cooking. Try the original Spaghetti Bolognese which probably tastes different in Bologna to your own home recipe. It is also renowned for fabulous Tortellini.

The region named for the Via Emilia, the Roman consular road built in the 2nd century BC by the Marcus Emilius Lepidus. The term Romagna, which indicates the southeast part of the Region, was only officially added to the name Emilia in 1947. See our Car lovers Tour in Modena under “Italian Style.”
