Discover Emilia-Romagna: what to visit, eat and enjoy in Rimini
Rimini, a beautiful town overlooking the Adriatic Sea and 100 km far from Bologna, is famous in Italy for its immense beaches and the most well-known discos, but it is much more!
If you love the sea breeze, shopping among boutiques and concept stores of top brands, and delighting in high-quality food, Rimini is the place for you! From musical festivals to super-equipped lidos, from prestigious monuments and museums to historic cafes: let’s discover together the goodies this city has to offer.
Must-visit
Rimini between art, museums, and hamlets: here are Veroni’s recommended places!
- Ponte di Tiberio
Crossing the bridge provides an excellent view of the river, especially at sunset. For a panoramic view, however, we suggest you do not cross it, but instead enter the Garden of the Righteous: a place surrounded by greenery, perfect for relaxing or strolling.
– - Borgo San Giuliano
You cannot miss the most picturesque corner of the city. Borgo San Giuliano is the city’s old fishing village, made up of a colorful maze of narrow streets overlooked by small houses covered in murals.
– - Fellini Museum
Movie buff reading? Go to the Fellini Museum, which is dedicated precisely to the famous director of La dolce vita. It is not just one place, but rather a diffuse museum where each space celebrates the director’s career.
– - Piazza Tre Martiri
Known as Piazza Tre Martiri, but formerly called Piazza delle Erbe, it is one of Rimini’s main gathering places. It is named after three young partisans who were killed here in 1944. Don’t miss the Clock Tower towering above the buildings, with its calendar and moon phase dial.
Must-eat
A day is also enough to meet the Rimini’s delicacies and culinary tradition. Romagna cuisine, street food, and more: between piada and cappelletti (meat-filled pasta with broth), taste is among the kings of the place.
- Bar Ilde: the best piadana
Nestled in the green hills of Covignano is one of the tastiest piadinas in Romagna, with its soft puff pastry and stuffed with quality ingredients, all from the area such as ham, prosciutto, Squacquerone cheese or mozzarella.

This is the perfect place to have a drink or eat local street food with friends in one of the thousands of bars present: wineries, pubs, and small restaurants will offer you the best of the region.
