Bologna, the "Red City" is a nice city to spend a day or two. It has fantastic culinary delights, including the famous Bolognaise sauce, at very reasonable prices. One of the reasons is that it is a university town- the oldest university in the West is located here. There are many cafes and restaurants set up in the open spaces of the Di Maggio Square in the city centre, offering delightful outdoor casual dining. Right next to this is the Neptune Fountain with the readily recognizable bronze figure of Neptune. Another delightful sculpture in the square is the little Putto and dolphin, with water sprouting from the mouth of the dolphin.
