You can find us in Faenza, internationally acknowledged for its ancient ceramic tradition, thanks to its finely decorated majolica (also called \u201cFaenza\u201d) and to the work of generations of artists and artisans throughout the centuries.
\nFrom here you can easily reach culturally relevant cities such as Firenze, Ravenna and Venezia.<\/p>\n

Also, you can choose to visit 3 charming medieval towns located in Faenza surroundings: Brisighella, Dozza and Bertinoro.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1568364777408{background-color: #f9f9f9 !important;}” mobile_bg_img_hidden=”no” tablet_bg_img_hidden=”no” woodmart_parallax=”0″ woodmart_gradient_switch=”no” row_reverse_mobile=”0″ row_reverse_tablet=”0″ woodmart_disable_overflow=”0″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n
