The life and culture is rooted in the land and sea. But Parma, with its famous Teatro Regio is not only famous for its cheese and ham but also as the birthplace of Toscanini. The wealthiest city in the region, Modena is known for its link to Ferrari and Maserati but is also the hometown of Luciano Pavarotti, and is renowned for its Balsamic Vinegar. The regional Capital of Emilia Romagna, Bologna is noted for its University but is in addition called 'La Grassa' for the rich table it sets. Travelling along the coast, past popular "sun, sea and fun" resorts, one reaches Rimini and Ravenna, built by Augustus and famed for its mosaics.
