Padua(Padova) is an Italian city that is older than Rome, close to many of Italy's most famous destinations, and with so many things to see and do, it is easy to fill your stay here with great activities.However, this surprising city of history, art and food in the north-eastern Italian region of Veneto is often overlooked by mass tourism in favour of nearby Venice and Verona. This means that Padua is off the beaten track, and it's a pleasure to explore it without the crowds. So if you're looking for an exciting walking destination in northern Italy, or a place from which to set off every day for different cities in the north and even the centre of the country, Padua is a great choice. In Padua you can see the houses where the astronomer Galileo Galilei and the sculptor Donatello lived, the street where the famous architect Andrea Palladio was born and the basilica where Elena Cornaro Piscopia, the first woman in the world to hold a doctorate, is buried. If you are planning a holiday in Italy and are looking for a great day trip destination or a convenient place to use as a base, the city of Padua may be the ideal candidate. Close to five airports and served by an extensive public transport network, Padua in northern Italy is easy to reach and navigate.
