City in Italy

Parma

2 things to see

Parma is synonymous with Parmesan cheese and prosciutto, a refined city in Emilia-Romagna where the food traditions are world-class and the prices are not. The cathedral square with its pink marble baptistery is free to admire, and the wide Parco Ducale across the river costs nothing for a stroll. It sits on the main rail line between Bologna and Modena, so it slots easily into a low-cost Emilia-Romagna food run.
