Parma, Italy
Parma lies 57 miles above sea level on the Via Emilia, near the point where the Baganza flows into the Parma. Of probable Etruscan origin, it became a Roman colony in 183 BC. At the fall of the Empire it was occupied by the Goths and later by the Byzantines and Lombards.

The spirit of music abides there
Although I`m not an Italian, I'm connected deeply with this town. For me Parma is a magic place, so calm! On first sight it isn`t something spectacular, rather ordinary, but at the same time it gives you such a relax! The air in Parma is delicious to breathe, and you can walk endless hours among the small clean passages. It is the birthplace of Toscanini and Verdi, and the spirit of music abides there. Parma is famous for its wonderful cuisine and in my opinion, it is one of the best places to live in. I love you, Parma!
