As with any other Italian city, the local cuisine owes its origins to the rich and unique history which has characterized it. Being a seaside town, fish is a staple food, but the Venetian culinary tradition also includes food from distant countries, which arrived in this area thanks to flourishing trade.

Among the specialties there are marinated eel and sardines in sauce, but also rosada, a typical milk pudding, or fisherman’s bread, made with almonds and pistachios: delicacies which can be tasted in the numerous restaurants located throughout the lagoon.

Venice is not the only attraction which can be found in the Veneto region. A few kilometres away, you can admire the beautiful city of Vicenza, which offers some of the greatest works of Andrea Palladio. Do not miss a visit to the Palladian Basilica, the Olympic Theatre, or La Rotonda, the most famous of the Palladian villas. Another city of interest is Verona: a walk through the shopping area in Via Mazzini, the Arena with its prestigious Opera Festival or Piazza delle Erbe, all that will amaze you. A tour of the famous Venetian Villas, designed by the architect Palladio and recognized as World Heritage by UNESCO, will offer unique, unforgettable moments.
