There is beautiful old fashionable cafe-bar on Piazza Savonarola with outstanding glass garden overlooking the square and the nearby Castello Estense. There was heavy rain, that late afternoon, when I came to Farrara and it was the best possible spot to have esspresso and glass of white wine. I spend some time here, just before dinner time, watching locals and tourists running away of rain.

Address: Piazza Savonarola
From August 22-28, the city of Ferrara was host of the 18th international festival of street music, known also as the Buskers Festival. The groups and the individual musicians, from all over the world, came to Ferrara in that week making it joyful and colourful capital of Italy at that moment. There was music for everybodies taste, from classical to folk, from rock to country, from medieval madrigals to canzona napolitana.
