Ducal Palace And Piazza Roma In Modena, Italy

Modena has 2 major piazzas and “Piazza Roma” is one of the them.

Compared to Pizza Grande (a separate submit is coming), Piazza Roma is pretty cutting-edge to my liking. It is huge and I read somewhere that it became once a parking zone. My curiousity led me to test out Google Maps and certainly the rectangular was a parking zone earlier than. Piazza Roma is absolutely a incredibly new rectangular! Now we recognise that Google Maps is old. By 5 years!


The Baroque Ducal Palace (Palzzo Ducale) on Piazza Roma.


With all that has been said and achieved, it delighted me to realize that there are neighborhood metropolis officials who had aims to enhance and pedestrianised the location. After all, this square is the entrance to the grand and famous Baroque Palazzo Ducale (Ducal Palace of Modena) this is now a military academy.

Because a week before this Emilia-Romagna experience I changed into visiting the Het Loo Palace within the Netherlands, I become not in reality within the mood this time for some indoor visit. The Ducal Palace was no longer an option for me. I need a few stability and now not a surplus of the equal element on my plate within a short span of time. The truth is I cannot in reality undergo inspecting period interiors of castles and palaces again. It could be an overkill. Overdose.

In Modena and here at Piazza Roma, my concept became pretty easy. I just need to enjoy the city and the out of doors Italian environment, which includes sitting in an out of doors terrace consuming a cup of coffee.

Trivia: Did you know that Italians drink cappuccino most effective inside the morning?

Anything after 11am should be a restaurant (coffee). Shhh, I ordered this cappuccino round 11:30 within the morning. I think the half-hour discrepancy is forgivable? Well, I genuinely wish so! =)

One of the matters that did now not heat as much as me are the direct areas across the piazza, specially on the again. As it isn't always but absolutely advanced, the again area isn't always truly bustling. In the experience that you may not discover any engaging cafes and stores. The atmosphere of the square is, let's consider, a bit sterile? You’ve were given a massive open space, a cutting-edge designed spring and fountain spewing water out of the grounds. Sadly, I am quite lacking the antique Italian soul and character. If not for the grandiose Palazzo Ducale being the main enchantment, the square could had been mundane. But that is simply me, and who is aware of, the returned area turns into extra advanced in the years to come.

Well the cafe—the La Gelateria Remondini at the nook of the square did store the instant. I had a super view of the palace and the whole square from my little table. Great vicinity to grab a cup of cappuccino—make it before 11am, if no longer some gelato and simply take a seat there and those watch for a bit.


The a piece scientific atmosphere of Piazza Roma.


This is what I love doing (and do excellent honestly) when I am visiting =). I imply, seriously.


La Gelateria Remondini.


Piazza Roma in all fairness a brand new rectangular. It was known as Piazza Reale earlier than the makeover.
