Inside Parma, Italy: Art, Cheese, Verdi, and Wine
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- Parma is often overshadowed by its bigger neighbor Bologna, but this relatively small Italian town has a whole lot to offer when it comes to art, music, history, and-of course-cheese. Located in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, Parma was once the capital of a powerful duchy, which filled the city with many priceless treasures. Here, we got an intimate look at one of only three Renaissance theaters still in existence as well as one of the most stunning church frescoes in all of Italy.
We also took a bike ride through the countryside to go on a tour through a Parmigiano-Reggiano factory to get a behind the scenes look (and taste!) of the world-famous cheese. We enjoyed the local prosciutto and discovered our new favorite sparkling wine, Lambrusco. And that’s not it! There are also Roman ruins, an unfinished da Vinci painting at the National Gallery, and … puppets (lots of ‘em)!

Great video! We're planning a trip to this part of Italy and this video was very helpful. We didn't know about the puppet museum so thanks for sharing your experience there.
Thanks, that means a lot to us. Parma was a surprise in every way, we discovered the puppet museum while walking to the Parma Duomo. And, the bike and cheese tour was epic. All in all, this town is highly underrated in Italy. Our next video will be in an overlooked town in Tuscany.
What other cities will you visit in Italy?
@@BigSmallTravel We'll start in Rome and our plan is to work our way north to Milan. We look forward to your future videos, thanks again!
Great cathedral and cheese tour. Parma seems interesting.
Thanks, the fresco in the Parma cathedral was jaw dropping as you can see at 3:52 And, of course the cheese is one of-a-kind in Parma.

Art, cheese, Verdi and Wine. 😊
Yes, indeed. Have you been to Parma?
Love it!
Thank you, we are very happy you enjoyed it.
There were no ceiling lights when he painted that.
This blew us away, just breathtaking. The sheer beauty of this fresco by Correggio was unexpected, and entrance to the church was free. Sometimes parts of Italy feel like a living museum.
At the time of the painting there was no good way to see the ceiling and the art work. It has been said that the artists gave 100% effort even though they knew it was hard to admire the work from below. They were pious men that assumed God was looking. How high is the ceiling?
Yes, the effort to make this painting a reality is incredible to think of with the limitations of the past. Correggio wanted to visualize key religious doctrines to celebrate Parma's return to the Papal States. It is stunning in person and shows one of the greatest illusionistic frescoes of the Renaissance.
