The Fountain of Neptune in Bologna

The Fountain of Neptune in Bologna.
It is certainly the most famous fountain in the Emilian city of Bologna.
Located in Piazza del Nettuno (practically in Piazza Maggiore) between the Salaborsa Library, Palazzo Re Enzo and Palazzo d’Accursio.
Obviously it represents the god of the sea surrounded by cherubs holding dolphins and four nereids.
There is also a secret (which is no longer a secret) of the seven that can be found in the city linked to the finger of the god which, if seen from a certain perspective, appears to be his genital organ.

La Finestrella di via Piella, la Venezia di Bologna

The Little Window in Via Piella, the Venice of Bologna.
One of the places usually mentioned among the secrets of the city (but which at this point has become one of the most visited and photographed tourist places) is this small window which, if opened, shows one of the last remaining canals in Bologna.
It really seems like you are in Venice.
