Flying visit to Bologna


Watch lithe creatures kick shapes at the urban dance festival (danzaurbana.it), August 30-September 13, or enjoy Il Nuovo e l'Antico (the old and the new) at the classical music festival, September 24-October 29

Getting there
Fly from Stansted or Birmingham with Ryanair.

Where to stay
In the medieval area, Convento Dei Fiori Di Seta is a 15th-century nunnery with a wine bar in the sacristy and breakfast served in the altar area.

Where to eat
Try the ultimate Bolognese polpette (meatballs) at Trattoria Meloncello. Drogheria Della Rosa (drogheria dellarosa.it) is a boho bistro with shelves full of old pharmacy bottles.

What to do
Pasta power will speed you up the Asinelli tower in the main square; and don't miss the delis below.
