Scroll down for Italian Italy is full of beautiful and ancient medieval villages and this is not one of the best to visit, so don't waste your time. First, the road to reach it is is treacherous, with the usual Italian drivers who go fast even on daringly dangerous mountain roads and will tail the bump of your car trying to make you go faster. Just ignore them and make them seethe:) Second, the village itself is so tiny and lacking anything really worth visiting, except for your random old building here and there, obviously ruined by recent architecture that ruin the whole scenery. The famous hunched bridge can be seen in many other old medieval villages throughout Italy and are much more beautiful. The locals are quite rude, probably the sudden success with tourists has gone to their heads, with restaurants and 2 star hotels charging way too much for what they offer. Stay away, unless you're on the way to see something better. L'Italia è piena di bellissimi e antichi borghi medievali e questo non è uno dei migliori da visitare, quindi risparmiatevi la fatica di visitarlo. Innanzitutto, la strada per raggiungerla è insidiosa, con i soliti automobilisti che vanno veloci anche su strade di montagna pericolose, ti si piazzano dietro troppo vicini, cercando di farti andare più veloce. In secondo luogo, il villaggio stesso è molto piccolo, visitabile in un'ora al massimo, e manca di qualcosa che valga davvero la pena visitare, tranne per il sollito antico edificio sparso, ovviamente rovinato dall'architettura recente che sfregia l'intero scenario. Il famoso ponte ricurvo si ritrova in molti altri borghi medievali in Italia e sono molto più belli. La popolazione è piuttosto maleducata, probabilmente l'improvviso successo turistico gli ha dato alla testa, con ristoranti e hotel a 2 stelle che fanno pagare troppo per quello che offrono. Stacci lontano, a meno che tu non stia andando oltre a vedere qualcosa di meglio.

The village of Bobbio is one of the natural witnesses of history, its origins take us from the Celts to the present day. The greatest testimonies are handed down to us from the early Middle Ages with the figure of San Colombano, founder of a monastic complex which, despite continuous adjustments and transformations, has come down to us. To visit the Cathedral which I found very beautiful, but in my opinion it is the whole village with the two streets and alleys that creates an enchanted atmosphere, giving the visitor the impression of being in a world suspended in time, where you expect to see a Lombard warrior at the corner of the street, or perhaps an elf and a hobbits drinking beer in a tavern. And maybe if you stop to eat you will discover the delights of Bobbiese cuisine.

Climbing into Val Trebbia from Piacenza, the road would be a pity the bumpy floors and the construction sites in progress and pieces cordoned off. Arrived in the town, found free parking easily. Visit of the historic village easy and anyway facilitated by panels or apps. Downloadable with QR. Good organization of open business activities. Visits of historical monuments partly free, except for museums and castle.

Beautiful and quietly visited in a short time, spectacular the Pontevecchio and all the churches. The Duomo is perfectly maintained and full of history. Stop not to be missed. Thanks also to the information point that has been able to give us useful information.

Lovely riverside town steeped in history with a picture perfect central square where there's a stylish period cafe or two where you can put your feet up and watch the world go by. Saturday market is recommended.

Quiet little town with a beautiful bridge and the main cathedral, worth a stop over for an hour or two.

Although I have gone several times only now I appreciate the deep beauty of the village. It combines antique charm with elegance.
