Naked Bologna

Bologna still lacks tourist queues yet it boasts abundant art treasures, ancient architectural gems, medieval walls, dizzying towers, fabulous porticoes, gorgeous curves and geometrical lines cutting wonderful patterns across regal palazzi and traditional red-roofed buildings. Unlike most traditional city guides this pocket guide includes a host of unvisited, lesser-known places throughout Bologna from an insider's point of view. 2 city maps indicate the location of each place. Included are also online links to video guides of each individual museum, palazzo, and points of interest, which can be viewed on any smartphone for those on the go. In addition, an extra chapter on etiquette is included at the beginning just as a precautionary tale for those who fear their attempts at communication get lost in translation.
