It may feel like you’re entering a completely different part of the city after leaving Piazza Galvani, and for a good reason: you’re getting closer to the hills, which means more green spaces. Bologna is not a particularly green city, or better, most of its greenery is hidden inside numerous courtyards that, sadly, are private properties. Nevertheless, you can enjoy plenty of green spaces once you head towards the hills, and even in the southern part of the city center (exactly where I’m taking you now!), you can find some islands of nature. One of them is a tiny Piazza Cavour, immersed in green and resembling a tiny city garden - popular with gelato lovers!
