As tombs go, pretty spectacular, reached by dinky streets with interesting shops. Just a short step from Piazza del Erbe and Juliet's house. Didn't go into the church.

Renovated by the Japanese architect Tadao Ando, Palazzo Grassi and Punta della Dogana are the two museums of the Pinault Collection in Venice.

Until 15th December 2019, Punta della Dogana presents 'Luogo e Segni', a group exhibition of contemporary art that brings together 36 artists whose works establish a particular relationship with their urban, social, political, historical, intellectual setting. The Teatrino di Palazzo Grassi offers a wide range of events: conferences, concerts, screenings, workshops... that underline the will to establish a dialogue with a Venetian and international public.

The Punta della Dogana in Venice was built in the late 17th century as a Customs House. Having been empty for years, the art collector Francois Pinault signed a lease with the city and commissioned the architect Tadao Ando to restore the exterior and boldly reschape the interiors as a gallery for a changing series of exhibitions of contemporary art. Two years ago, Damien Hirst took over the entire building. This year is an exhibition 'Luogo e Segni' linked to memory of places. Compared to the Damien Hirst exhibition, the current is a little tame, with a few fireworks including Wu Tsang up in the Belvedere and Sturtevant's light installation, while there are a few works which do make you question what some artists get away with...

Piazza dei Signori (Square of the Lords) is the main square of this little gem of a town, Vicenza. During the Roman Empire it was the center of markets and exchange of commercial business, as well as one the main strolling areas of the citizenship.

Monte Grappa is a historical site that represents the most important pillar of Italian defence against Austria in WW1. Apart from the beautiful monuments erected in honour of those that fought at that very spot, there are tunnels and bunkers to search, artillery still in original positions, a lovely restaurant and breath-taking views of the surrounding countryside. This is a must-see on your visit to Northern Italy, it is well-worth the drive.
