Padua City Walk

There is no better way to get a feel for the city than to visit the market squares in the morning. We’ll explore Piazza delle Erbe, full of the freshest fruit and vegetables of the season, and the many market stands in the central piazzas. We’ll visit the Basilica of Saint Anthony, the spiritual center of the city, dating back to the early 1200s. Near the Basilica is the largest square in town (actually one of the largest in Europe), called Prato della Valle. On Saturdays it is home to a bustling market. Finally you can enjoy The Scrovegni Chapel fresco paintings that are Giotto's greatest masterpiece
