In Romagna we have fun all day, every day. Smiling brings with it many benefits and the one that stands out in particular is our ability to live every minute of the day with joy and a positive approach: Romagna, just saying it brings a smile to your face.

On the streets, surrounded by the music and noise of the city, any time is the perfect opportunity for getting to know new people. Our free spirit is at home in squares, on the beach, in museums; basically, wherever it is possible to open up to others.

Having fun without running risks: every event is an unforgettable experience to enjoy with a smile, good food and enthusiastic dancing.

Where can you sip a delicious coffee with wonderful sea views, surrounded by sandcastles, relax doing yoga at dawn or walk barefoot on the sand until the sun finally sets? So many questions, but only one answer – in Romagna.

We don’t wait until summer to enjoy the sound of the waves and play on the sand: you can have fun on the beach any time of year. Breathe in the fragrance of the sea, delight in its beauty even when the sky is grey and enjoy its beneficial properties.

As free and a little smug as the people of Romagna can sometimes be, when we get to the beach, we throw away our inhibitions and become kids again. A constant alternation of colours and hands that come together to enjoy a rhythm that never ends.

Parks and nature reserves that will amaze visitors, along paths and in underground caves where you can abandon yourselves to the charm of unspoilt nature, rich in colours, sounds and vitality that will help you leave behind the hubbub of the city and tune into the bellows of the deer or the song of the nightingales.

In the heart of the Po Delta Park, experience the theatrical spectacle of pink flamingos, who seem to come together in a dance to welcome those who love nature and choose to discover Romagna. Elegant and light, this is an unforgettable sight.

These beautiful and unspoilt landscapes host thousands of wild animals and birds, most of which can be admired thanks to trips to sighting spots – the so-called ‘sanctuaries’ of birdwatching.

The land that Julius Caesar chose to lay the foundations of the Roman Empire: stubborn, strong and brave, just like the noble leader. We look to the future, proud of our roots and the past millennia that made Romagna the cradle of one of the most important civilisations.

East and west meet in Romagna, just as the sea embraces the land. Losing yourself surrounded by mosaics, breathing in the magnificent Byzantine art, reliving the memory of those who wrote immortal words: in Romagna, every trip becomes a unique and unforgettable experience.

We are nurtured by art and the wonders we find along the routes taken by the armies of the Empire and the naval fleet of Augustus. The timeless monuments that grace our cities and the works of art that draw thousands of tourists here each year are the legacy of such an important historical past.

A land of beauty and fortresses, memories of the past and the great seignories enclosed in our castles, symbols of power and wealth that still astound us thanks to their majesty, the imposing remains of a history with a thousand different facets.

Between the sea and the hills, our castles speak of feuds and conflicts that have crossed our land. Mighty defence systems and an evocative legacy of a distant past that still echoes around the walls of every fortification and that seems to come back to life when we walk around the inland villages.

More than any other, the Malatesta were the family that left an indelible mark on the history of Romagna, extending their dominion as far as the Marche region and the lands they once ruled still retain a precious legacy of this seignory, including fortifications, artwork, museums and libraries.

People born in Romagna learn to ride a bicycle before they learn to walk. Here, any excuse is a good excuse to get on our bikes and set off around our hills, mountains and parks; every ride affords a wonderful sensation of freedom and sights of rare beauty.

Cycling is not a simple passion here: sometimes it is almost a faith that unites us and from the sea to the mountains, helps us discover the most secluded and isolated corners of this land. Whether it lasts just an hour or all day long, every itinerary offers us new experiences.

Breath-taking scenarios, cultural excursions, stops to savour the delights of the land: on a bike, anything is possible! This is not just a simple passion, but a way of life; for the most adventurous, cycling quickly towards increasingly arduous climbs, as well as the more modest, who love to relax as they enjoy the views.

Mention great food and Romagna immediately springs to mind. The flavours of our land are an asset we honour every day at the table, always in great company. Passion, culture and tradition are the ingredients that make our food an Italian excellence around the world.

For piada you only need a few ingredients; water, flour, extra-virgin olive oil from our hills and salt. Still piping hot, delicious and colourful, it is our real calling card. Every part of Romagna makes it slightly differently, but the flavour remains unmistakeable and unforgettable.

From the simplest to the most complex flavours, anytime is the right time to sit down and share the gifts of our land. It doesn’t take much to make us happy: we are never without a smile and an extra place at the table.

The land of Romagna is millennia old with a rich heritage of monuments, great names and works of art in a blend of ancient history, cinema and theatre. In our cities we are surrounded by timeless artistic delights, bearing witness to a land that is keen to preserve and is rightly proud of its past.

We nurture culture, in all its aspects, with great passion and dedication. Our theatres host some of the biggest international companies, targeting a fairly mixed public: opera, prose or music performances, all you need to do is settle back in your seat and enjoy a unique experience in great company.

Boasting wonderful monuments and artefacts, every ancient building narrates the thousand-year history of our land, a feature of all our main towns and cities. Living in Romagna means always feeling like you are a part of history, on a stage illuminated by the stars.
