A beautiful spot with magnificent views from their Ponte Vecchio, and many great places to eat. It's only 10 minutes by cab to Marostica, which is also definitely worth a visit.

A lovely small town but do not go there on a Saturday morning which is market day (tatty stuff being sold, mainly curtains and cushions and rugs). Every square in the town was taken over by these stalls which meant that you couldn't see the buildings at all. The museum was overcrowded and we had to queue for a long time, because there were only three rooms inside to see and every room was full of guided tours being conducted very loudly which completely split our own viewing experience.

mario-angoni

not so small city at northern part of Italy with several places around to visit, within a 30 min train travel . Has a historical center and one of the most prestigious pens of the world sold there: Montegrappa. Worth visiting, staying and enjoying.

Un bel centro storico ... qualche mercatino ha riscaldare l'atmosfera natalizia... bar e locali tipici circondano la piazza e riempiono le viuzze che partono da essa

Bassano del Grappa è una cittadina meravigliosa , con panorami ed architetture veramente belle da vedere , piena di vita e di gente felice ; siamo stati fortunati in quanto c'era anche una festa del cioccolato con tante bancarelle , oltre a varie mostre fotografiche interessanti , il giorno dopo abbiamo visitato Marostica che abbiamo trovato altrettanto bella e piena di vita con un affollato mercatino di cose vecchie estremamente interessante nella piazza principale della città .

Non credevo fosse così, pensavo fosse molto meno carina, o quantomeno fosse solo il ponte, invece è tanto tanto in più.

PaolaL24

Bhe... Il ponte di Bassano, splendida architettura ora, di nuovo visibile dopo il restauro, è che ha una storia alpina di resistenza non indifferente, ha sempre il suo fascino. Se volete vedere piazza della Libertà, non andateci di sabato perché c'è il mercato. Nel complesso, una mezza giornata rilassante e colma di storia. Lo consiglio

Soniacondor

Bellissima la città di Bassano del Grappa, ancora di più con tutte le decorazioni natalizie, con piazza Libertà e piazza Garibaldi, le due piazze principali contigue, e il ponte degli alpini, detto anche ponte vecchio sul Ticino. Da non perdere la visita al museo civico in piazza Garibaldi, palazzo Sturm, il museo degli alpini e il museo della grappa.
