From Lodi there is a road by Cremona and Mantua to Bologna; but the other by Piacenza and Parma is the pleasanteft, and the moft frequented. ... Piacenza is about 200 yards from the Po: a town of great note and antiquity, but of late much decayed and depopulated. It has no architecture, long ugly ftreets, and paltry fquares. Moft of the churches are embellifhed with paintings of the Bologna fchool, the Carracci and their difciples.
