A little overshadowed by its close vicinity to such cities as Venice and Verona, Vicenza is known as a provincial city, tied up to the secular tradition of religiosity and conservatism, but also animated by an industriousness that has favored the development of great industries and innovative productive trends. This is the city of Palladio seeing that starting from the layout of its streets intersecting the traces of an ancient roman camp, it is the buildings erected by him that have molded this city, influencing its development. The heart of Vicenza is a casket filled with treasures enhanced by this divine architect who arrived from Padua as a humble stone-cutter, and thanks to his genius transformed his status and name, turning from the simple Andrea Pietro della Gondola, into the famous Andrea Palladio.
