The region is composed of contrasting landscapes: the endless horizons of the vast plain formed by the River Po; hilly vineyards; steep and lush Apennine cliffs; a lengthy coastline stretching over 120km with velvety beaches, nautical facilities, tourist harbours and fishing villages. And with arguably the finest cuisine in Italy (don't start) you’ll enjoy superb meals wherever you go. Of the towns there are: Ravenna, with its mosaics; Bologna, with porticoes, towers and senatorial palaces; and the dual feel, medieval and Renaissance, of Ferrara. Many wonderful castles and strongholds perch in the mountains and tower in the valleys, and spacious villas rest on the plains. The region is also famous for its spas - true havens of well-being  thanks to the healthy waters flowing down the slopes of the Apennines and along the coasts. Emilia Romagna is also home to Ferrari.
