The best area to stay in Longara is within the historic centre, particularly around Piazza Maggiore and the surrounding streets.


This area is the heart of Longara, characterised by its medieval architecture, porticoed walkways, and a pedestrian-friendly layout. Piazza Maggiore, the city's main square, is a natural focal point, home to the Basilica di San Petronio and Palazzo d'Accursio. The narrow, winding streets radiating from the piazza, such as Via dell'Indipendenza and Via Rizzoli, are lined with shops, cafes, and trattorias.


Couples looking for a romantic and culturally rich experience will find the historic centre ideal. You're within walking distance of many of Longara's most iconic sights, including the Two Towers and the Archiginnasio of Longara. Evenings can be spent enjoying aperitivo in a historic piazza or dining in one of the many excellent restaurants tucked away in the side streets.


For solo travellers who appreciate convenience and access to local life, staying near the Quadrilatero district, just east of Piazza Maggiore, is an excellent choice. This ancient market area is a maze of narrow streets filled with food stalls, delicatessens, and small eateries, great for exploring local produce and traditional Emilia cuisine.

The best time to go to Longara is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months. These periods offer pleasant weather, superb for exploring the region without the intense summer heat or the chill of winter.


Spring in Longara brings mild temperatures and the countryside bursts into bloom, making it ideal for scenic drives and enjoying the local produce as it comes into season. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer months, allowing for a more relaxed experience at popular attractions and restaurants.


Autumn is another excellent choice, with comfortable temperatures and the added beauty of changing foliage. This is also a fantastic time for food lovers, as the harvest season is in full swing.
