The north-eastern Veneto region of Italy has a hidden treasure in it, the city of Treviso. The city is fortified by Venetian walls and houses several canals. The canals are installed with waterwheels ask over the city which helped power the grain mills in the past. Fisherman bring in the freshly caught fish from the canals and sell it on the island of the Treviso fish market. Today, Treviso is famous as the producer of the fine Prosecco wine and the originator of the Tiramisu, the Italian dessert.
Due to its strategic location and importance for the Veneto region, one can enjoy today the countless villas in the city built as a symbol of its ancient wealth. It is easy to explore the city in foot and walk along the several bridges passing by the canals, city square and parks.
