To the outsider, Bologna is an enigma; its streets eerily void of tourists and locals during the baking hot summer months. Now, for the first time, this unique city guide exposes a host of secret locations kept under lock and key, where priceless art work is stashed away from prying eyes, and offers invaluable advice about visiting jealously guarded points-of-interest even the neighbours greedily conceal from each other. Since 2005 we have gained unhindered access to private and public buildings recording in both video imagery and words so only those with a profound sense of curiosity and adventure may let their nose guide them into unchartered waters. This is an ancient citadel still asleep – but not for long.
