Vicenza - Palladio's City

Vicenza is a small but very pretty city, here famous architect Andrea Palladio created his masterpieces.

The main points of interest (designed by Palladio) are:

The Teatro Olimpico ("Olympic Theatre"), a Reneissance theatre with a wonderful trompe-l'oeil built by Vincenzo Scamozzi. (https://www.teatrolimpicovicenza.it/en/)
