You can't miss the Two Towers, our city's most famous icons, right in the heart of Bologna. While the taller Asinelli tower is currently closed for a major restoration project and can't be climbed, just standing at their base and gazing up at their dramatic lean is an experience in itself. These medieval giants have watched over Bologna for centuries, and seeing them up close gives you a real sense of our city's long and powerful history. The whole area around them is buzzing, so it's the perfect spot to start your explorations.
