Villa Ghigi is a serene park located on the hills to the south of Bologna's city center. It is named after the Ghigi family, who donated the land to the city in the 1970s. The park is known for its lush greenery, walking trails, and stunning panoramic views of Bologna. It provides a peaceful escape from the urban hustle and bustle, with ample space for picnics, leisurely strolls, and nature observation. The villa itself, although not always open to the public, adds a touch of historical charm to the park. Villa Ghigi is an ideal spot for those seeking tranquility and a touch of nature without straying far from the city. It is a favorite among locals for jogging and dog walking, and its hilltop location makes it a perfect vantage point to watch the sunset over the terracotta rooftops of Bologna.
