Padua Province (Padova)

In the Italian region of Venice there is the small province of Padua. The area of 2142 km2 is divided into 104 municipalities with a population of approximately 887000. The cultural centre of the province of Padua is the capital of Padua. In the north of this province there is the province of Treviso, in the east of Venice – Rovigo, in the south and the west – Verona and Vicenza.

The cities of Abano Terme and Este are especially worth seeing because of their unique history. The capital of the province has a special flair, it is not crowded with tourists and is ruled by the government of the residents and numerous students.
Nevertheless, a trip to the province of Padua is an attraction, the suburbs of the cities in this region are beautiful and there are lots of secluded vacation homes and apartments, but those who prefer to live in the city can also find an accommodation. Because of all these circumstances the holiday in the province of Padua is a real pleasure. Instead of going to a place full with tourists, you should try this region and explore its unique history for yourself. Many historical sites and tourist facilities are offered here.

Another highlight in the Padua area is the city walls of the town Citadella, the Villa Contarini, and the natural phenomenon called karst spring. If the northern region is characterized by hills, the south, on the contrary, never finishes surprising by its vineyards and impressive villas. Even the highest claims of the holiday makers can be satisfied and their intention to meet and explore new cultures and traditions can be fulfilled right here.
