Province of waterways

… Once upon a time there was a city where gondolas, skiffs, barges and boats of various kinds skimmed silently down the inner canals, transporting persons and goods along the waterways, passing a continual procession of bridges and splendid mansions. This city with delightful canals running through it was not Venice, but Padova. Through this navigable canal network, today the city rediscovers the artistic, historic and natural treasures of the surrounding area. From March to October shipping company riverboats will make excursions to the historic-artistic spots along the inner city canals of Padova and stretches of Riviera del Brenta ; from Padova to Battaglia Terme at Monselice , and will navigate the Bacchiglione with its unspoilt scenery from Padova to Saccolongo and and from Pontelongo to Chioggia .
