72h in ITALY: Trip to PADOVA (Padua)

Piazza dei Signori with the astronomical clock in Padua Padova Italy

Our last day in Italy began with a visit to Padua (Padova). Padua is the third largest city in the province of Veneto, located about 40km from Venice. It used to be an agricultural village called Padovinium, and its present name got in the late fourth century.
Padua is worldwide known as the university city. University of Padua was built here in 1222. This is the second oldest European University, and one of the most famous lecturers was Galileo Galilei...

Naš poslednji dan u Italiji je započeo posetom Padovi. Padova je treći najveći grad u pokrajini Veneto, udaljen nekih 40km od Venecije. Ranije je to bilo poljoprivredno selo pod imenom Padovinium, dok današnje ime dobija krajem četvrtog veka.
Padova je širom sveta poznata kao univerzitetski grad. Ovde je 1222. izgrađen Univerzitet Padove koji je po starosti drugi evropski univerzitet, a jedan od čuvenih predavača je bio Galileo Galilej...

Almost a century was needed to complete the internal walls of Padua. In good condition to this day are 11km of medieval walls, yet from the original 14 towers only two have survived.
Unfortunately, the day when we visited Padua the marathon was organized and the central part of the city, where the prettiest tourist attractions are located, was closed. So we were not able to see perhaps the most beautiful part of the city- Prato della Valle, which is the main square.

Skoro čitav jedan vek je bio potreban da se završe unutrašnje zidine Padove. U dobro očuvanom stanju i dan danas je 11km srednjovekovnih zidina, ali od 14 prvobitnih toranja samo dva su sačuvana.
Na svu žalost dana kada smo mi posetili Padovu bio je organizovan maraton, i centralni deo grada gde se nalaze divne turističke znamenitosti je bio zatvoren. Tako da nismo uspeli da vidimo možda i najlepši deo grada- Prato della Valle koji je glavni trg.

I truly am sorry that we failed to see everything we planned, but at least we stroll through the city on a sunny day. We saw Piazza dei Signori and the astronomical clock, Piazza delle Erbe with the Palace of Reason (Palazzo della Ragione), beautiful Basilica of St. Anthony, we even managed to sit and drink a cappuccino (I used the time to pop over to another Kiko store and Zara). And finally, we headed towards the town called Vicenza...

Žao mi je sto nismo uspeli sve planirano da vidimo, ali makar smo se prošetali gradom po sunčanom danu. Videli smo Trg Gospode (Piazza dei Signori) gde se nalazi astronomski sat, Trg Erbe sa Palatom Razuma (Palazzo della Ragione), lepu Baziliku Svetog Antonija, čak smo ugrabili koji trenutak da popijemo kapućino (ja sam iskoristila vreme da skoknem i do još jedne Kiko radnje i Zare). I na kraju svega, krenuli u pravcu gradića zvanog Vicenza...
