place where to enjoy

Bassano is famous

Treviso. Bonfire and
Festival.
MARCH
Rogo della Vecia.
Treviso is around 30
kms north of Venice.
It is known as the
Citta dAcqua, the
city of water. is a
beautiful small
city, not on the
scale of Venice but
I believe a quieter,
less touristy, more
authentic Italian
city.
