Reggio bells

We stayed in the Ostello Basilica della Ghiara, a hostel housed in a former convent, in Reggio. A bell rang on the half hour to keep us up on the time, even through the night. Occasionally a carillon played a short tune. The bell that can be heard around 30 seconds into the clip is the time-keeping bell.

Piazza by night

At night, the piazzas become public living rooms, complete with tables, chairs, and couches, with food and drinks served by the surrounding restaurants and bars. This is the Piazza S. Prospero in Reggio.

Model

The first full day we spent entirely in Reggio. In the morning, we ambled around a city park with grand, old trees 

and encountered this photographer and model.

Reggio Emilia

We stayed in Reggio Emilia for three nights. The main street of town was hung with flags.
