Veneto

Veneto is a small province in the north of Italy but it houses some of the greatest sights in the world. Venice is of course one of them. Venice is Romance, and you cannot help being impressed by the sheer beauty of the canals, the small houses, the boats, the people.

But do not limit your trip to Venice. Padua which has the oldest university of Europe, Verona the town of Romeo and Juliet and a very impressive Roman theatre, Asolo and Vicenza also merit a visit of several days.

In the west of Veneto the Lago di Garda is an ideal spot for holidays, close to the shores of the lake you find the Valpolicella area which produces some of Italy's best wines.
