  • This is the beautiful city of VICENZA, in Veneto, North East of the Italian peninsula. Piazze dei Signori is fantastic.

  • The town has a faint smell of salami mixed with farts. I’m not sure what it is, but everywhere you go, every smell you smell, just is overridden by the smell of sewage and salami

  • Yep! Definitely worth visiting, as you can see there’s also a beautiful market on Sundays. This one was mostly flower and other vegetables. Everything lovely and enjoyable. The nearby churches and other monuments give this square a feeling that you will recognize from Venice. After all, the lion’s book is open.
  • A nice piazza with many restaurants and coffee shops. I like to visit on Thursday in particular as they have the Thursday market which has multiple little shops that sell clothes, and fresh produce. Some veggies also sell ready made meals.
  • Really the heart of the amazing city of Vicenza which should be a must see city for every tourist visiting Italy. The beautiful basilica and Loggia del Capitaniato are all located on this square.
  • Plaza has a festive vibe this time of year. Christmas lights everywhere making the night time light up with a cheerful atmosphere! There's also a Christmas market too. However , it's not as big as the one in Verona. They currently have the classics like mulled wine and pretzels. Definitely check this out if you're looking for something to do in the evening and don't want to drive too far. There are several parking lots, but you may need to wait as they tend to fill quickly for the dinner rush.
  • Piazza dei signori is main high street in Vicenza. It’s a biggest open square in the town that is next to Basilica Palladio di Vicenza. This square is free for everyone. A lot of open cafes and shops along this square. A very old Roman architecture that has history in its walls and floor. A must visit area if you are in Vicenza. A Bollywood movie 🎥 has been shoot in this square as well. It has two pillars replicated of Venice biggest square.
