The Perfume River winds through the capital, the imperial city, the Forbidden City and the inner city, giving this unique feudal capital a beautiful natural scenery.
Ferrara, City of the Renaissance, and its Po Delta
Developed around a ford on the Po River, Ferrara became an intellectual and artistic centre, attracting the greatest thinkers of the Italian Renaissance in the 15th and 16th centuries. Here, Piero della Francesca, Jacopo Bellini and Andrea Mantegna decorated the palace of the Este family. From 1492, Biagio Rossetti built neighbourhoods based on new principles of perspective, where the humanist concept of the "ideal city" came to life. The completion of this project marked the birth of modern urban planning and influenced its subsequent development.
