Vicenza and its territory

The Berici Hills

My friends, I live in an enchanted place.

A wave in the lowland, the Berici Hills

where I dwell; raised by the wind,

the ripple seems to be held still

As if by miracle; a light volute

A volatile skyline yet resolute

Like a veil, caught in the air by the blow of a breeze.

 

(Guido Piovene)

 

The location is most pleasant and agreeable.

It stands on a small hill of easy ascent,

With the navigable river  Bacchiglione

Flowing to one side;

On the other side lie more delightful hills,

so that the outlook is that of a large theatre.

 

(Andrea Palladio)
