VENETO region of considerable charm, Veneto extends from the beautiful Dolomites to the Adriatic Sea, a rich and variegated territory where the landscape ranges from mountain to coast, from lagoon to verdant plains with abundant waterways. A land to live in, love and discover. It puts everyone in agreement thanks to its many tourist attractions, with the stupendous natural landscapes, traditional historical-artistic culture, spas and fine cuisi- ne. Just the very name of its regional capital says it all: Venice. The sweet and romantic Venice sung by poets and writers from around the world, the Venice of Thomas Mann and Casanova, the Venice of gondoliers and the magnificent Carnival. Without forget- ting Lake Garda which, with its resorts along the eastern shore, the famous “Riviera degli Ulivi”, is the paradise of sailing, windsurfing and kite-surfing, paragliding, mountain biking, hiking and Nordic walking, horse-riding, sport fishing and golf. To discover this region means also to appreciate its traditional fla- vours, its wines, cheeses, typical dishes and sweets, handmade by local patisseries. The cultural calendar of this area abounds in events, with numerous folkloristic festivals and country feasts but, in particular, two events are not to be missed: the Biennale and the aforementioned famous Carnival.
