Walking and tasting in Parma
An unconventional walking tour of the UNESCO Italian Creative city of gastronomy, a perfect match of art and taste.
From the ground floor vaults of the Town Hall, still called Corn Porticoes, a "fil rouge" connects to the Cathedral, the Baptistry and to the Church of Santa Maria della Steccata, together with some remarkable "gastronomy boutiques".
Parma ham, Anolini and Parmigiano will delight your palate, while the gorgeous frescoes by Correggio and Parmigianino will feed your soul.
All mixed up in a unique, immersive experience.
