But the city's allure derives equally from hidden sources: querulous inhabitants, a bizarre culture of heroic negativity, and a rich historical past supplying enigmas, pleasures, and challenges.

But this was not just a very long walk — it was a pilgrimage.

Tutto ha inizio da una coppia e dalle loro caselle di posta che, in un continuo botta e risposta di messaggi e condivisioni, si riempiono velocemente di foto di luoghi idilliaci che non solo sembrano irraggiungibili, ma lo sono davvero, data la condizione di immobilità a cui Sara, Gian Marco e il resto del mondo sono stati costretti negli ultimi due anni. È in questa bolla di «poi vorrei» che nasce l’idea di Yes Weekend: un format che, dopo aver mosso i primi timidi passi sui social, è diventato una trasmissione di successo su Sky TG24.

Alla scoperta dell’anima oscura, nascosta, sotterranea, esoterica e criminale della città. È antico il fascino di Bologna. Come un’ombra, percorre da secoli i vicoli del centro storico, i sotterranei e i portici che hanno reso celebre nel mondo la città. Tutti conoscono la Bologna “dotta”, “grassa” e “turrita”, ma solo in pochi conoscono i segreti, gli enigmi e i gialli del capoluogo emiliano. Come la necropoli dei vampiri emersa dalle viscere della terra durante i recenti scavi per l’alta velocità, o il codice mai decifrato inciso sulla Pietra di Bologna.

Costantino D'Orazio ha investigato per anni la sua città, ne ha scandagliato i luoghi magici e sconosciuti, ne ha scrutato l'anima invisibile ai turisti.
