\nWe visit the centre of Cremona where the celebrated Torrazzo <\/strong>towers beside the Cathedral. Entry to the Cathedral, nicknamed the \u201cSistine of the North\u201d because of all its frescoes. We then go to the Stringed Instruments Museum in the Palazzo Comunale. Strolling along the streets of this city, between the old palazzi, we come across historic shops where we can purchase torrone (nougat), mostarda (fruits preserved in mustard) and chocolate violins.
\nTransfer for a typical lunch in the countryside of the bassa parmense.
