Until recently, when one thought of Veneto, one thought immediately of Venice, partly due to the fact that, for over eleven hundred years, Venice governed most of the Adriatic sea and Veneto was an integral part of its territory.
Today, Veneto has established its own distinct identity and offers hospitality to numerous visitors eager to explore the many treasures of the region; from the majestic Dolomites over which Cortina d’Ampezzo reigns supreme with her sublime ski slopes and stylish city centre much visited by the international jet set, to the elegant Palladian villas of Vicenza. Then there is Verona, the city of the Montecchi and Capuleti, of Romeo and Juliet, immortalised by Shakespeare, also home to the imposing Arena, often stage to both important classical concerts and modern music events, the perfect place to pass an unforgettable evening. Veneto also boasts other splendid cities like Treviso, Padova, Chioggia, and Mestre, as well as the magnificent Po delta. The commercial relations which the region has developed over the centuries has meant that a variety of communities of different cultural extractions are present in the area.
