Treviso<\/h2>\n

Treviso makes a great day trip from Venice for foodies. The city is renowned for its radicchio trevigiano<\/i> (red chicory) and Prosecco di Valdobbiadene.<\/a> You don\u2019t need to find the finest restaurant to enjoy these, either. In Treviso, every osteria<\/i> can satisfy your Italian food cravings.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

Gelato lovers will also be thrilled to discover that Treviso boasts some of the best gelato in Venice<\/a>. Top contenders include Dassie Vero Gelato Artigiano<\/a>, a gelateria that never ceases to experiment with its flavors (they even have a whole line of gin-based gelatos), and Il Re del Gelato (Via Roma, 13<\/i>), which delights guests with their mini cups and cones.<\/p>\n

While you eat your way through Treviso, the city will also win your heart with romantic porches, exceptional architecture, and charming views of the river flowing through the city.<\/p>\n

Every tiny corner of Treviso is filled with the North Italian spirit. Make sure to stop by the Fontana delle Tette, a signature landmark of the city. Finally, no day trip to Treviso would be complete without visiting Palazzo del Trecento to experience a bit of history.<\/p>\n

Padua<\/h2>\n

If you enjoy a young, dynamic city, then Padua makes the perfect Venice day trip. One of the most important Italian universities is here, so the whole city is filled with young voices and crazy hairstyles. You can reach the city by train from Venice in just 40 minutes, making it one of the easiest day trips from Venice.<\/p>\n

Padua (or Padova, in Italian) is an ancient city with cobblestones, rich history, and infinite charm. A must-see is certainly the Cappella degli Scrovegni<\/a>, Giotto\u2019s masterpiece. The small chapel is completely covered in frescoes from the fourteenth century. Remember to book your visit in advance!<\/p>\n
