Though an hour from Venice, Padua seems a world apart with its medieval marketplaces, Fascist-era facades and hip student population. Home to Italy’s second-oldest university, Padua houses extraordinary fresco including in Giotto’s masterpiece Cappella degli Scrovegni, and Titian’s St Anthony in the Scoletta del Santo.
The Rialto Markets in Venice were the most important market places in the world and it had squares and porticos dedicated to different products. This tradition still reflects in the names of present local lanes and fruit and vegetables are sold at Erberia, while oranges can be exclusively found at Naranzeria.
