THE PALLADIAN VILLAS
Among the wonders of our land, the villas designed by the great Andrea Palladio are among the major tourist attractions: here are the Palladian villas to see at least once in a lifetime
Among the major attractions of the Land of Wonders , Venetian villas are undoubtedly what most strikes the imagination of the tourist in Veneto, in particular the Palladian villas, designed by the greatest architect in history, Andrea Palladio .
The Palladian villas were designed, at the time of construction, to be splendid residences immersed in the countryside or in the hills ( Euganei And Berici ), where the noble families of the time could show off their wealth while enjoying the comforts and relaxation of these imposing, majestic and delightful shelters for everyday life (especially during the summer).
It is known that Palladio made history, and his style would have become a precursor of the architectures that followed him over the centuries, so much so that Palladian-style residences, similar to the villas in the areas of Vicenza, Verona, Venice, Treviso, Rovigo and Verona, still today they are built all over the world. From Bassano del Grappa they are about 20 km away, 25 minutes by car.
