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-

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!

back for the follow-up phase and for future
courses.The class-based course is comple-
