The Most Calming And Relaxing Areas In Emilia-Romagna
Emilia Romagna, in northern Italy, is a great spot to unwind because of its many charming mediaeval towns, serene gardens, and beautiful coastline.
If you're just seeking for a quiet location to meditate, Emilia Romagna can have all you need, from ancient monasteries to beachfront retreats and quaint mediaeval towns to well-stocked libraries and peaceful gardens. With its mountains, sea, and charming villages, this area is perfect for anyone looking to get away from it all and rediscover their inner peace and tranquility.
Here are the best "places of silence" in the region of Emilia-Romagna:
Cupola del Guercino
The Bolognese painter Guercino created a stunning cycle of frescoes for the Piacenza Cathedral's dome (cupola). Six enormous frescoes by Guercino, painted between 1626 and 1627, portray the prophets Zechariah, Ezekiel, Micah, Hosea, Haggai, and Geremiah. They can be seen by anyone who make their way to the dome's upper levels via the maze of concealed passageways, spiral staircases, and labyrinths. When one climbs ancient paths far from civilization, they may feel a sense of tranquility.
Malatestiana Library
The Malatestiana Library was founded by Malatesta Novello, the Lord of Cesena, in 1452, on the grounds of the former Franciscan convent. There are 340 Greek, Roman, and other language manuscripts here from from the 9th to the 15th centuries. The Library is also the country's 1st Memory of the World monument. Located to the north-west of Rimini, an Italian seaside resort town, this library is unique in that it is the sole surviving example of a fully maintained Humanistic Library. Bookworms and historians alike may relax in the library's serene atmosphere while exploring its many hidden nooks and crannies.
Labirinto della Masone
The Labirinto della Masone, with its 200,000 bamboo plants varying in height from 30 centimetres to 15 metres, is the largest bamboo labyrinth in the world. The trail over it is longer than 3 kilometres.
Ravenna
Ravenna is a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks in large part to the 'Zone of Silence’. This sacred space was created in the 1920s & 1930s when a number of public works projects were carried out in the vicinity of Dante's grave.
Village of Moraduccio
Moraduccio, a place of silence and mystery, may be reached after an hour's trek through the hillsides and waterfalls on the border of Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany. This is a 9th century village that was left in ruins following a war. Just plants, now, are the only ones that call this place home, therefore it is well hidden. The homes, which are mostly in ruins but are still standing, are an inspiration for resilience. Most people come to witness the stunning Moraduccio Waterfall and the roofless church, where they can look up and see the sky.
