Riviera del Brenta

Along the course of the Brenta, the river that connects Venice to the city of Padua, it is possible to see the splendid residences of Venice's nobility which they had built between 1500 and 1700. These majestic Palladian Villas, considered to be unique architectural masterpieces in the world, can be visited taking a boat ride on the Burchiello, the famous vessel which departs from Venice and goes up the Brenta river.
