About Padova
Padua is a city of about 208,000 built around a university founded in 1222. The Scrovegni Chapel holds Giotto's cycle of 38 scenes, the Basilica of St Anthony draws pilgrims under its Byzantine-looking domes, and the botanical garden, founded in 1545, is a UNESCO site. The Prato della Valle is a vast elliptical square ringed by 78 statues, and the old centre is lined with ancient arcades. Our homes are in one spot on the southern side of the city; they sleep up to six, all have air conditioning and most have a garden. The climate is humid subtropical, so summers are hot.
