What to do and see in Brescia, Lombardy: The Best Things to do for Honeymoon

March 29, 2022 Weston Hennigan

Set between Milan and Verona at the foot of the Alps, Brescia is the second-largest city in Italy’s northern Lombardy region, with just under 200,000 people. The city’s rich history dates back to pre-Roman times, when it was a Gallic capital. Among the many great local sights are the 11th-century Duomo Vecchio (Old Cathedral, also called La Rotonda), unique for its circular shape, the 17th-century Duomo Nuovo (New Cathedral) next door, and the first-century Roman ruins at Tempio Capitolino.

Brescia Castle

Reviewed By jujusorianom - London, United Kingdom

This is a great place to go with friends or family, or even alone. You are going to take amazing pictures specially if the day is sunny and bright. In my opinion, you should go with time, around two hours so you can walk around and in the castle.
