Bologna Shopping

by ludogatto

Update may 2008- Unfortunately this old shops is closed now cause thy moved into another location, not in city center, but in a neighboorood district...it's a pity that all the old fashinating shops have to close due to a lot of problems...the high locations prices, no parking in city center, too much shopping centers............

If u need fabrics, in this store you will be able to find all what you wished.
Disposed on five floor you will be able to find from the silk to the the furnishing fabrics too. The store has been recently restructured,but it maintain the original shape and the windows of the beginning of the century... this store is a piece of the recent history of this city

	variuos names of shops: Shopping in Corte Isolani Tip Rating:

By Azhut on April 10, 2004

by Azhut

In the heart of Bologna, after more than 600 years, one can walk down a passageway through buildings that already linked Strada Maggiore to Piazza S .Stefano in the 13th century. Through porticos, loggia and courtyards, where medieval shops stood, you now find the ideal place for strolling, shopping and meeting people. Unusual boutiques, located in a unique setting, offer a wide range of high quality items, to satisfy the more refined clients. Art galleries, cafés, a restaurant, a travel agency, a bank and a company of specialised dealers and stockbrokers enrich your promenade along Corte Isolani.

	Gucci, Prada, Armani etc.: Shopping in Galleria Cavour Tip Rating:

By Azhut on April 10, 2004

by Azhut

The history of Galleria Cavour Building work began on Galleria Cavour after the Second World War, in 1948, and the first shops were completed around 1960. The idea was to connect Piazza Cavour with the Pavaglione loggia with a covered walkway, i.e. "Galleria Cavour". Since the very beginning, the city's best stores have been located there. Now you can find brands such as Bulgari, Cartier, Céline, Christofle, Emporio Armani, Escada, Fendi, Gai Mattiolo, Gianni Versace, Gucci, La Perla, Louis Vuitton, Malo, Sutor Mantellassi, Tod's and Trussardi. It has been internationally recognised as one of the most important shopping streets in the world. Panelled with fine marble and red granite, it successfully combines the idea of the American shopping mall with European elegance.

	various names.....: Shopping Via D'Azeglio Tip Rating:

By Azhut on April 10, 2004

by Azhut

Whenever you are in Bologna you cannot leave without spending a few hours in Via D'Azeglio: renamed "the living room" by the Bolognese, the street leads to the most important square in the city (Piazza Maggiore) and offers the possibility of taking a timeless stroll in a completely pedestrian area; the elegant atmosphere of Via D'Azeglio is due to the beautiful palaces from the Bologna Renaissance period that act as a backdrop to the most important stores in the city. While you stroll down Via D'Azeglio you can take in a cocktail and friendly conversation or stop in front of the elegant boutique windows. Via D' Azeglio offers its guests a synthesis of Bologna.

	Via Foscherari: Frutta e verdura Tip Rating:

By croisbeauty on June 16, 2006

by croisbeauty, 4 more photos

I am not sure about location weather this is via Foscherari or Massei, anyway, the small green market is in one short and narrow street which lead directly to the Piazza Maggiore.
Emilia Romagna is best known for its agricultural production and I was expected to see more favourable prices for fruits and vegetables. However, the prices are higher than those in Veneto or Lombardy!
