"Ferrara" Ferrara by rubbersoul75
Ferrara Travel Guide: 322 reviews and 828 photos
Ferrara is:
A renaissance town of art, bicycles, history. A clean city with a University feel and air of prosperity… with more locals than tourists in the streets.
Makes a great stop on trips between Venice and points south such as Florence and Rome.

Since Ferrara is advertised as the City of Bicycles, we tackled the town on 2 wheels (and a carriage for the girls...)
- Pros:Not as toursited as you might expect for a town offering so much
