MODENA

Visiting La Galleria di Ferrari in Maranello was truly unforgettable! I even witnessed a spectacular Sunday morning car show in Modena's main piazza complete with more than one hundred red and yellow different models of Ferraris.
If you’re lucky, you may witness a massive raduno di Ferrari in MODENA’s Piazza Grande on a Sunday morning. While you’re there, pop into the Duomo guarded by stone lions and climb Ghirlandina Tower if it’s open. The town boasts colorful homes and porticoes like Bologna, a grand palace and public gardens, as well as the Ferrari factory about forty minutes away in Maranello. Take a bus from the main station past Via Emilia Ovest to the Galleria di Ferrari— definitely worth the trip to see showroom after showroom of many models of Ferraris through the years. Don’t leave town without sampling Modena’s famous balsamic vinegar!
