Bologna's biggest monument is Due Torre, these two giant towers that are very recognizable as Bolognese. We went up them today (before a very large Chinese cena) and it was incredible. We had to climb up 498 stairs to get to the top, but the view was spectacular and so was the weather. We took lots of pictures and took in the beautiful 360' view of the city and the hillsides. There's a superstition that if you climb the tower you won't graduate...but i figure I'm ok because I'm not graduating from UNIBO (U. of Bologna)! But ya...the pictures are great and the view was even better. Whoever comes to visit me...we'll have to take a trip up there!
