What to expect

1

Arqua Petrarca

Start your tour of Padua from a magical place outside the walls: Arquà Petrarca, famous for hosting the poet Francesco Petrarca. Even today, you can breathe a magical atmosphere in its streets and, if you want to pay homage to the great poet of the past, we also recommend a visit "out of town" to his tomb.

Duration 2 minutes
