   You will continue your journey to reach a liqueurs and spirits shop. This is one of the oldest European firms producing liqueurs and spirits.

   In the afternoon, you will leave the beautiful site of Arquà Petrarca to reach a monumental garden located in an area steeped in nature and history. In the south Euganean Hills, this is one of the most beautiful, as well as one of the most intricate and unspoiled among the Venetian baroque gardens. The design is simple but deceptive, just around the main axis where we find a series of pools, fountains, and cascades that are unique in the region. A play that carries the eye in a prospettiva d’acqua, which rises up towards the wooded green Euganean Hills. At the ticket office, you’ll receive a brochure with historical information and a map of the Garden that you can follow.
