We'll meet in Piazza Grande to start our tour of Modena and its historic downtown area.

Our first stop is the Modena Cathedral, a key example of Roman architecture. We will focus on the Ghirlandina Tower, a symbol of Modena. Guided by our knowledgeable guide, we will learn about these landmarks, which were declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1997.

We will then stroll through the historic downtown streets, learning about the city's history. Piazza Roma will be highlighted, especially for the Ducal Palace, which is also home to Modena's Military Academy.

The city is rich in legends, and throughout the tour, we will discuss the significance of vinegar in Modena's culture, its connection to Duke Francis V of Habsburg-East, and the local admiration for Luciano Pavarotti.

After 1.5 hours exploring the historic streets, we will return to the starting point to conclude our tour.
