Sightseeing in Treviso - what to see. Complete travel guide

Treviso will be genuinely liked by those people who enjoy the rest away from the noisy metropolises. Life here is measured and calm. Along the bank of the river you will find spacious malls and parks, can have some rest in cozy cafes and restaurants, make memorable shopping in one of the city’s shops, or simply make a picnic in the shade of trees.
Vicolo Molinetto is one of the most beautiful areas in the city. Here you can walk through a large park and observe an ancient mill, which keeps working even nowadays. Fans of shopping should go to Pescara Island as this is the liveliest part of the city. In addition to traditional gifts and decorations you can buy seafood. The best time to relax in this resort is the period from May to October.

A bright monument of the early 14th century is St. Leonardo church. It was built near the hospital, which took the name of the Holy originally. The hospital building has not survived to this day. However, the church continues to operate for more than 600 years. Its first huge reconstruction took place in the middle of the 17th century. The facade was completely changed. The interior, visitors can see today, was created in the 19th century.

Lovers of art can visit the old La Marignana-Benetton villa, which was built in the 18th century and originally belonged to a wealthy family. Subsequently, the famous sculptor Tony Benetton became its owner. Currently, a museum dedicated to his work operates in the building. Visitors can admire the best works of the sculptor and wander the surrounding picturesque garden.

There are some rather unusual cultural objects in the city, as well. The Museum of sports shoes is a vivid example. Its opening took place in 1984 in a beautiful historic building. The museum is the only cultural center of its kind in the world. Some of its exhibits are over a hundred years old.
