Modena, Italy, should be on every person’s must-visit list. Having traveled wildly through the years and across the globe, Modena has remained one the few places I love to visit in Europe and in all of the world. Visitors will surely love the region for its culture and calmness compared to others in the country.

Cars
If you’re a car enthusiast, make sure to pay Modena a visit. The region is home to Ferrari, Ducati, Maserati, and Lamborghini. Museo Ferrari is twelve kilometers outside of town, housing the history and motoring models of the famous motor name. Other supercar manufacturers offer a tour in their factories and visitors can even test drive these supercars at Modena Autodrome.
Eats
Zampone or Cotechino Modena—the former’s less fatty version—are both dishes to try in the region. Three-star Michelin Osteria Francescana, dubbed as one of the world’s best restaurants, only has twelve tables to serve; if a dining experience here is desired, it would be best to secure a seat four months prior to your visit. Even with that kind of waiting time, a seat isn’t guaranteed. However, Osteria is always worth the wait. If you fail to have a seat reserved at the Michelin star-holding restaurant, local restaurants bring you back to the region’s roots as dishes served are of true Modena-nature. Enjoy different kinds of pasta, and ravish the sparkle of a Lambrusco.
Piazzas
Inspiring the famous Italian poem “The Stolen Bucket,” Piazza Grande and Piazza della Torre are great and timeless representations of the medieval times. The main square is surrounded by several monuments which includes the town hall, Cathedral Modena, medieval relics, and the picture-perfect 15th century tower.
