Veneto Area Guide
Situated in Italy's northeast, Veneto extends from the Dolomites to the Adriatic Sea, by way of an expansive range of hills and a valley furrowed by rivers, canals and the Po River Delta. The typical scenery of Veneto's coast is the Venetian lagoon, and, right on this very lagoon stands perhaps the most unique city in the entire world - Venice, visited by millions of tourists every year. Veneto was part of the Roman Empire until the 5th century AD. Later, Venice ruled for centuries over one of the largest and richest maritime republics and trade empires in the world.
Veneto is a region full of fascination and charm, with countless natural and artistic attractions, as well as a wide range of not-to-be-missed sights and localities. Many of these are listed by UNESCO as World Heritage sites: Venice, naturally, as well as the historic centres of Verona and Vicenza (characterized by the classical style of architect Andrea Palladio), and the Dolomite mountain range. If wines are your thing, you cannot fail to miss Amarone, Prosecco and Grappa, all of which are found in this diverse region of northern Italy.
