The North East Italy / Veneto region
Venice is the heart of Veneto region, from here you can start a day (or possibly more) tour to one of the beautiful nearby cities and sarrounding areas, all easely reachable either by car or by train: Treviso , Padova, Vicenza, Verona, Belluno. They all are very interesting from a cultural and historical point of view, but also for the natural beauties of the nearby hills, for the culinary tradition and the wine production. So if you go to Treviso do not miss to visit Asolo and the Montello, if you go to Padova do not miss to see the Colli Euganei, if you go to Vicenza the Colli Iberici, for Verona the famous Garda Lake, and if you go to Belluno do not miss to spend more than one day in the famous Dolomiti mountains, overall if your holiday is in winter. The climate of our region is continental, so hot in summer and cold in winter with warm spring and autumn. Wathever season you will decide to come you will find beautiful places, colours and food.
