SESSION 2

Bologna - Italy

A city rich in art and Story, it is the most ancient

university of the world. Bologna offers its visitors

incredible attractions and a stunning artistic heritage.

The medieval old town is full of 16th century

medieval palaces, edifices and churches. Bologna is

the city that has more arcades in the world: just over

40 km in the city center. It also has the longest arcade

in the world: one that leads to St. Luke. It is

a labyrinth made of many different architectu-

ral solutions, and that creates original and fascina-

ting views and perspectives. With these scenes even

an amateur can do a wonderful album of photos col-

lection!

Bologna is located in the center-north of Italy, the

main junction for all the links in the Peninsula, from

North to South, and also in a International le-

but you can also find comfort in nature, as it is in one

of the greenest regions of the country.

So participants will enjoy tasteful and natural

food, from the nearby farmers.

This is why students and tourists from all the world

every year choose Bologna!
