March 2023 - on our 4,5 week trip to Italy and Back, this was our first WHS sight. However only a short revisit, after we had already been here in September 2014. Back then we enjoyed the Classicist buildings in Vicenza and spend the the evening at the Piazza dei signori drinking Sprizz for 2,50€ and had a nice chat with a GI from the nearby US military base.

This time we were here at noon time and searched for a quick lunch. We had only a glimpse at the historic buildings. The most enjoyable part was the Parco Querini with its rabbit population and the tortoise.

In 2014 we visited some more Villas outside of Vicenza of which la Rotonda is the masterpiece by Palladio but also Villa Foscari near Venice was highly enjoyable.

How to get there: 2014 we came from north east through Bassano die Grappa, which is worth a stop. This time we took the road from Rovereto via Schio, which is quite strenous to drive, but the landscapes are marvelous.
