The northeastern part of Italy has amazing landscapes and, at the same time, the region of Emilia Romagna, full of wonderful monuments and art. This area was created by joining two districts that meet in the capital of the region - Bologna. Emilia Romagna stretches from the Adriatic Sea to the Apennines, and therefore boasts a variety of nature. There are many beautiful, historic cities such as Parma, Modena, Ferrara, Rimini.

The area of Emilia Romagna abounds in lowland areas, stretching in the form of the Po Plain to the peaks of the Apennines covered with forests, the highest of which - Cimone - reaches 2,165 m above sea level. The coastal areas are famous for their beautiful beaches and are a great tourist attraction. Lake Valli di Comacchio is located in the eastern part of the region.

Emilia Romagna and the pearls of UNESCO monuments

The first site in the Emilia Romagna region was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1995. It was the unusual old town of Ferrara , designed by architect Biagio Rossetti . This Renaissance place is considered to be the first symbol of modern urban planning.

The World Heritage List includes legendary porticoes with a length of 38 in the city itself. With the part outside its walls, they reach as much as 53 km.

Tahiti Camping & Thermae Bungalow Park

When we get tired of searching for monuments from the UNESCO list, it is worth finding a good place to rest. In the coastal town of Lido delle Nazioni , surrounded by extraordinary nature, there is the luxurious Tahiti Camping & Thermae Bungalow Park . This place offers many attractions for children and adults.

The resort includes comfortably furnished holiday homes , equipped with a kitchenette, bathroom with shower, bedroom, air conditioning and a functional patio with chairs and a table. There are also lots situated among trees, with sanitary and electricity connections.

Tahiti Camping & Thermae Bungalow Park also provides many entertainment for children , such as a Mini Club with animators preparing activities for toddlers, a playground, a trampoline and a paddling pool for children aged 1-3 years.

The campsite is distinguished by a very good location . The vicinity of the crystal clear sea is conducive to sunbathing and relaxation, but it is also worth going on a bicycle trip or a trip to nearby cities (Ferrara, Modena, Bologna), organized by the resort.
