Introducing Parma

Rich on the back of its food industry, Parma is the perfect picture of a well-off provincial city. Well-dressed locals cycle through pretty piazzas and drink in elegant cafés; beautifully preserved monuments adorn picturesque cobbled lanes; and sumptuous displays tempt from delicious delis. It’s not cheap, though, and you’ll find it quite a challenge to keep costs down without skimping on the magnificent local food – something you really don’t want to do.
