Already inside the villa it will be possible to admire and learn about history and works of important authors: the villa itself is an original structure of the sixteenth century, protected by the Superintendency of Italian Artistic-Cultural Heritage, where inside hides a ceiling frescoed by an anonymous disciple of the school of the great Giambattista Tiepolo, but not only, other modern- contemporary authors have decided to exhibit personal works in the spaces of Villa Cornaro. Little known, but actually very interesting, is the Napoleon Museum which is only 3 km from the Tourist Suites.

As for the historical cities, most of the surrounding towns are in themselves, which show features and treasures of their time: Soave, Montagnana, and then Sirmione, Salò,..

Vicenza and the Palladio: from the Olympic Theater, to the Palladian Basilica, Palazzo Chiericati, Villa La Rotonda and then Piazza dei Signori, the many streets that have remained bowed, glimpses of wonderful hidden buildings.

Vicenza, Verona, Padua, Bassano, are all city centers full of shops of all kinds, from the most luxurious boutiques, to the world famous low-cost chains. It will be enough to walk even without a destination to find yourself on the right and left accompanied by the windows that change 4 or 5 times a year.

The Adigeo Shopping Center in Verona is new, but for those looking for the big opportunity, Noventa di Piave designer outlet is recommended, or the Bottega Veneta outlet just a few kilometers from the center of Vicenza.

Depending on what you are looking for or what are your tastes, the staff will be happy to advise you on what to do, so as not to fall into the cliché of the usual tourist and expensive restaurant.
