Modena - Amidst art, culture, flavours, and motors, a less familiar Modena unfolds, revealing a province rich with hidden corners and lesser-known tastes. Through a tapestry of stories and breathtaking images, the reader is guided from north to south on a journey of rediscovery, tracing the origins and history of this industrious and singular land. The volume is divided into three sections: the first delves into the heart of the city, showcasing its most iconic symbols-the Duomo complex, the Ghirlandina, and the UNESCO World Heritage site of Piazza Grande, alongside the Duke's Palace and the Estense Galleries. It also celebrates culinary treasures such as Balsamic Vinegar, Parmigiano Reggiano, and Lambrusco, while dedicating a space to the world of motors and the beauty of song. The second part highlights the hidden municipalities nestled among hills and mountains, with vignettes that portray the life and traditions of these historic local communities. Lastly, the third and final section embarks on an adventure through the Bassa Modenese, a special land immersed in mist and human warmth, traversed by the Secchia and Panaro rivers that have both shaped and nurtured its development over the centuries. This work stands as a tribute to Modenese identity, adorned with stunning imagery that evokes profound inspiration.
