Favorite thing: The spacious gardens are also a feature of the Villa Valmarana and, at one end of the garden is this fine god-like statue facing the villa.

Favorite thing: Yet another duomo, yet another fabulous altar piece. Gilded figures surrounded by Corinthian columns and all the usual grandeur.

Favorite thing: This is a beautiful archway and long set of stairs leading up to Mt. Berico. Palladio designed the archway, and there are about 180 steps to climb on the way up, whew!!

Favorite thing: Piazza Signori is always a great place to go to, as there are shops to check out, and always lots of people walking around.
