    • Favorite Thing: If you arrive by train, just outside the station you will find a large leafy square, with a pond and a monument in the middle.
    The man celebrated by this monument is Vittorio Bottego, one of those explorers who in the XIX century wanted to eliminate all the blank areas from the maps of Africa and went exploring those regions that were still unknown to the white man.
    The other two human figures in this monument represent two rivers Bottego explored: the Omo and the Juba.

     Glad to see you have a picture of Giuseppe Verdi on your Parma intro page. I've never been to the city of Parma, but I visited Parma province recently, to see the Verdi sites in and around Busseto. I enjoyed reading your Parma tips.

     Nearly each day I eat some Parmigiano Reggiano but that is not an excuse for not visiting Parma!    		Lhenne1 Sun Apr 6, 2008 19:41 UTC
     I love your Cloister tip. I can only imagine sitting for hours in a Medieval library, must be wonderful!
