Proposed itinerary<\/h4><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Andrea Palladio<\/b>, the architect who revolutionized the way villa architecture was conceived in the 16th century, will be the “pathfinder” of the tour. First stop is Maser<\/b> where stands Villa Barbaro<\/a><\/b>, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, surrounded by beautiful vineyards in a verdant area at the foot of the Colli Asolani. Also famous for the priceless fresco decorations executed by Paolo Veronese, the collection of carriages and the historic wine cellar. A few kilometers away is the second stop, Fanzolo<\/b> di Vedelago, where the Villa Emo<\/b><\/a> designed by Palladio for the family of the same name; a country residence of great simplicity and absolute harmony. The interior is richly decorated with striking 16th-century frescoes inspired by mythology and agricultural life. <\/p>\n

From the Palladian villas the tour takes us to Possagno<\/strong>, on the slopes of Monte Grappa, world famous as the birthplace of the illustrious sculptor Antonio Canova<\/b>. The town is dominated by the grandiose Temple, which brings together architectural elements taken from universal monuments and donated to the community by the sculptor shortly before his death. Possagno<\/b> is also home to the Canova Museum<\/a><\/b>, which will give us the opportunity to visit the artist’s birthplace and the extraordinary Gipsoteca<\/b>, a unique museum in the world that preserves the plaster models used for the marble sculptures, preserved in the most important international museums. <\/p>\n

To conclude the tour I will take you to Castelfranco Veneto<\/b>, a very pretty walled city. In Giorgione<\/b> ‘s hometown I will tell you what mystery hovers around the artist in his homeland, admiring some of his masterpieces such as the altarpiece preserved in the town’s cathedral. A stone’s throw away, the Teatro Accademico<\/strong> will drop us into the atmosphere of the Enlightenment circles of the 1700s, when Castelfranco was the seat of one of them: theAccademia dei Riccati<\/em>.<\/span> <\/p>\n

The itinerary can be enriched with food and wine<\/strong> elements: from the DOC wines of the Strada del Vino del Montello e Colli Asolani (Montello and Colli Asolani Wine Road), to the tasty and flavorful mushrooms scattered among the forests and meadows of Montello.<\/p>\n<\/div>
