Two episodes plus bonus clips: Bologna and Emilia Romagna: Known for wheels of golden cheese, sweet prosciutto and divine vinegar, this slice of Northern Italy is a feast. We eat our way across the region, taking in glorious art and culture: cheese and mosaics in Parma, Balsamic vinegar and racecars in Modena, ham, pasta and university life in Bologna. An excursion to the mountainous Apennines, a trip to Ravennas sixth-century mosaics and a beach resort at Rimini round out the adventure. *New York Film Festival Finalist Award Veneto and Dolomites: Graced with charming cities, countryside villas and precious art, this corner of Italy is a playground of Alpine peaks and meadows. After a night at the opera in Veronas Roman arena, we search for Giottos colorful frescoes in Padua and architect Palladios palatial villas in Vicenza and the surrounding countryside. Then we head for the hills and dramatic mountains and meadows in the Dolomite.
