Emilia Romagna can easily be
divided into two completely different sections.
In the South it is mainly mountainous while
in the North it is cultivated plains.
On the Adriatic shoreline we also
find two contrasting aspects: the wild and silent
one of the lagoons and that of the overcrowded
beaches marked by the numerous tourist structures
along the coast.
Climate:
The climate is characterized by harsh
Winters with many foggy and icy days and warm Summers.
Along the Adriatic shoreline the climate is mild;
in mountains the snowfalls are abundant, while in
the plain therer are fairly important rainfalls.
Comunications:
The main road in Emilia Romagna is the
Via Emilia. Most of the large cities of Emilia Romagna
are found along it and the railway and motorway tun
parallel to it. There are several btanches off these
main lines of communication towards the neighbouring
Regions. Bologna is the main hb where most of the
roads meet. There are two airports, one in Bologna
(Borgo Panigale) and the other at Rimini.
