Bologna, Italy: famous landmark - the Twin Towers! Climb to the top of the tower to enjoy the beautiful scenery

#High-altitude viewing #Overseas travel When you come to Bologna, Italy, don’t miss the opportunity to climb to the top of the tower and see the beautiful panoramic view of the ancient city! Red brick houses, red ash houses, all you see is a large expanse of red brick roofs! ! This is Bologna’s famous landmark – the top of one of the two towers (Le Due Torri) (Torre degli Asinelli). Looking from a high place, the ancient city of Bologna does have another kind of charming charm! 🔶The "Ancient City of Towers" BOLOGNA in the Middle Ages🔶 In the Middle Ages, the entire center of the ancient city of Bologna was originally filled with towers that soared into the sky. In the 12th and 13th centuries, there were as many as 180 tower buildings in the city! In those days, the nobles and wealthy families in Bologna built tall towers in order to demonstrate their family's prestige and power. Most of the tall towers are watchtowers, used for guarding and defense purposes. Over the years, most of the more than one hundred ancient towers in Bologna have been destroyed by wars, lightning, fires and other disasters, and only about twenty of them remain today. The most famous of these is the Twin Towers (Le DueTorri) near Piazza Maggiore, the city center square. The taller Torre degli Asinelli, which is not as tilted, is also open to the public. 🔶Climb up 498 steps! Accompanied by loud footsteps and slight panting🔶 To successfully climb Torre degli Asinelli, you really need a little bit of physical strength and a little bit of adventurous spirit. The feeling inside the tower is very simple and primitive. There is no elevator! To reach the top, you have to climb up the narrow wooden stairs inside the tower, a total of 498 steps! ! The wooden steps are actually antique and were built in 1684. The stairs are also quite narrow, and one-way traffic control is adopted inside the tower. Those who want to reach the summit will have different time periods to choose from when buying tickets, and then must arrive on time. Upon entry, the staff will tell you when to come down. In this way, when you go down, you won't bump into people who are going up in the next period of time. In the empty tower, loud footsteps and slight panting sounds echoed. People climbing the stairs kept looking upwards. The stairs seemed to have no end. 🔶A 360-degree panoramic view of the ancient city of BOLOGNA, beautiful! 🔶 Once you reach the top of the tower, you will feel so comfortable and cool! The breeze blows gently, accompanied by a 360-degree panoramic view of the entire ancient city of Bologna, a very healing beauty! Especially on such a sunny day, with the pure blue sky and the red brick roofs, Bologna is truly the "Red City"! 🔶How to get to LE DUE TORRI (TORRE DEGLI ASINELLI)🔶 The twin towers are located in Piazza di Porta Ravegnana, not far from Piazza Maggiore, the city center square. #StarWriterGoGoGo #ItalianTravel
