BASSANO
BASSANO DEL GRAPPA, AND ITS THOUSAND YEARS
CITY OF THE VENETO OF THE CULTURE 2001
Today you can still experience the magnificence of the Middle Ages in a beautiful town called Bassano. Its history is engraved on the stone and many art treasures adorn its places. It has a high and noble position, on the last hill before spectacular mountains, and is divided by the turbulent River Brenta.
The Old Wooden Bridge, perceived by Palladio, rejoin the town and is a focal point appreciated by so many lovers. It is a town where people live, sparkling and explosive, "A PIECE OF SKY THAT HAS FALLEN TO EARTH".
It is a pleasure walk around the town and see a change of scenery at every step; from squares and arcades to crowded cafés and inns, with lively scented markets, all capturing the vitality of life. Narrow streets run through the town like veins, joining the houses, arcades and squares, noble mansions and modern buildings.
