In the footsteps of Queen Corner

One of the most interesting female characters in the story of the Repubblica Serenissima (The Most Serene Republic of Venice) is Caterina Cornaro, born in Venice in 1454. Caterina was married to the King of Cyprus and Armenia but, after his death, was forced to abdicate in favour of Venice. The Republic of Venice repaid her by bestowing the stronghold of Asolo to her, where she established a very refined court.

The Botanical Garden of Padua

The botanical garden in Padua was founded in 1545 and is the world's oldest university botanical garden. This natural and architectural wonder houses nearly 7,000 plant species, a unique variety of specimens recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1997.

The old garden, a circular structure in which a square is inscribed that is divided into four more regular squares, is the product of scientific fervour on the one hand and the ideals of order, balance and geometry that enlivened Padua's cultural landscape during the Renaissance on the other hand.
