Highlights of Vicenza: the city of Palladio
Walking through silent alleys and sudden, enchanting views will lead us to discover the solemn Palladian Basilica, and - the most beautiful of Palladian dreams - the Olympic Theater. You will understand why without Palladio's work the history of architecture would not be the same and extraordinary constructions such as the White House, and Plantation Manor Houses in Georgia would never have been built.
