Living
Bologna has the oldest university in Europe with fine buildings to visit. Degrees can take a long time to complete in Italy but studying in historic Bologna is a bonus and this clip tells you how to ask your way around town.
Working
A brief tour of Bologna from the cloisters of the centre, home to many university students, to the outskirts where we meet people working in various professions.
Festivals
Festivals now seek to include immigrants for greater cultural cohesion. Some Italians are interviewed about their jobs. At Torre del Lago some of the members of the opera are preparing for their big night.
