ITALIANISSIMO

Emilia Romagna

Regal medieval cities, pleasant, well-heeled provincial towns, agricultural and foodie riches, sun-soaked Adriatic beaches, state-of-the-art manufacturing, glorious nature trails and a vast legacy of operatic talents including Pavarotti, Verdi and Toscanini make Emilia Romagna one of Italy’s most endearing and hospitable regions.

The region’s vibrant and posh cities are jumping off points to a treasure trove of cultural dis-coveries. Emilia Romagna’s beloved culinary pleasures including Prosciutto di Parma, Parmi-giano Reggiano, Modena’s Balsamic Vinegar, Bologna’s Mortadella, Lasagna, Tortellini and more are not to be missed.
