worth a visit Reggio Emilia even for a short walk. Completely rebuilt from a few years, looks like a small town, almost a little town, which houses two of the most beautiful churches in the area: the Cathedral and the Basilica of San Prospero .
Once in the city you will find many parking already on the road, blue area, but not limited traffic. The parking cost 1 euro per hour. If you like walking, you can choose some guarded parking, which costs only a little more, but that is outside of the walls. To go downtown so you have to go through all the public gardens (which I did, it seemed to me highly recommended even by day).
Several pedestrian plazas and nearly all of the downtown area. The great Square Theatres houses the Municipal Theatre , very large and completely redone, with the fountain that stands before you, that each now has several jets. Very nice, the kids play a lot.
Continuing former Victory Square you immediately notice the Teatro Ariosto, a bit more decadent than the other, baby, a characteristic yellow. Unfortunately I was not able to visit them inside because there were conferences in both, was a special day, but the pictures of the guide looks really good. Next to the Teatro Ariosto is Galleria Parmeggiani , a small art gallery with paintings and other objects belonging to the 800 French and English Parmeggiani same. Council to visit us, it is very nice, you visit in a short time and if you love art collections you will be pleasantly surprised.
Going back to the Municipal Theatre, passing the Post Office building , you will dive into the heart of the city, within walking distance ; Museums . The museums house permanent collections of various kinds, if you love them you have to take an afternoon because the rooms are so many.
The center continues to a beautiful area, which overlooks Pramopolini Square with the Cathedral . Always been home to the city market, filled with stalls, full of pigeons, it's really a enchanting scenery. From there appears Broletto , ancient cemetery of the former passage Cathedral, where the stalls are still up to Piazza San Prospero , in which the beautiful Basilica of San Prospero , with its distinctive tower .
The square is very characteristic, full of stalls by day, romantic night with the colors of pink and white marble of the church. Also the beautiful church inside, has a spectacular body! Unfortunately I could not see very well, there was a baptism. In fact, you better information on the timing of the churches because they are not able to not see another one, the Blessed Virgin of Ghiara , as the priest decided not to open it .... was supposed to open at 16, at 17 I was still there waiting for the priest, and then I I went. From there, however, leads to another very nice area of \u200b\u200btown, the Via Emilia , because I imagined that knows how to Bologna! Instead it is a lovely pedestrian street very wide, full of stores and shops, nice for strolling and shopping.
I went to visit the Museo del Tricolore , located in Piazza Prampolini. Nothing exciting I must say, some interesting bits, but the Sala del Tricolore, which is located in the town hall, it's really beautiful. Only official ceremonies are held here, so you can not always see it, inquire about hours, because it is much more beautiful than any museum.
Another nice thing to see is the Torre del Bordello , with his alley. You can find it right next to the town. Formerly it was called so because of a brothel next door, and also Bordello Lane, Lane Deanship today, it's really distinctive, narrow, extremely quiet. Under the Broletto instead there is a small door with pink marble lions, a bit worn. You will struggle to see if there is a market, but it is an access side of the Cathedral. With my usual bad luck was closed, but you can access, limited hours. Represents the former entrance to the cemetery and the library of the Cathedral. The lions are characteristic and are worth a look even from outside. The church is still beautiful inside and out, with partial front that adds charm. The square then, in addition to hosting various stalls, is surrounded by typical restaurants and bars, very nice style lounge. In the evening, without the market, the square is painted almost rose-colored marble and lit by streetlamps. Really nice to see.
