The Riviera del Brenta, the story of a myth

A stay in the Riviera del Brenta is an ideal opportunity to discover a heterogeneous territory, rich of history, culture and emotions. Take the chance to sleep in history, stroll among Villas and ancient dwellings, on foot, by bicycle or by boat. You can also enjoy activities such as golfing, swimming or playing tennis, with a boat trip along the Brenta Canal being an absolute must. Board one of the boats that travel daily along the waters of the Brenta Canal, while the guides illustrate the history, the culture and the art of the Villas visible from the river. And at sunset, nothing beats the pleasure of a spritz or a fragrant glass of wine, sitting, listening to the gentle gurgling of the waters. Then comes a feast for the palate: for seafood lovers, the great culinary tradition of the Brenta Riviera; for others, succulent grilled meats, or the flavorful dishes of the renowned Miranese cuisine, prepared with herbs and typical local produce.

The romantic landscapes and the suggestive glimpses of the Riviera, its lush nature and its slow-flowing river have inspired artists over the generation. Romantic landscapes, picturesque and suggestive views and corners that have fascinated great artists, the green and luxuriant nature, the slow flowing of the waters… It’s impossible not to think of the great engravers such as Coronelli, Volkamer and Costa, or the Venetian landscape painters like Canaletto, Guardi and Cimaroli, or Arcadian artists like Zais and renowned painters such as Tiepolo . All of them have chosen the Brenta Riviera as a subject for their works of art: look at them and lose yourself in history and old traditions. But it is not just art, history and traditions: take some time to visit one of the many boutiques and stores you will find in this stunning area. The Brenta Riviera is a land to live intensely, day by day, emotion by emotion!
