Treviso
The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office advises against all but essential travel to Treviso due to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
Treviso has everything you could want from a mid-sized Veneto city: medieval city walls, lots of pretty canals, narrow cobbled streets and frescoed churches. Despite this, it receives few visitors, eclipsed by its more impressive neighbours. If you want to experience authentic Veneto life away from the tourist crowds, this is a great place to come.
Die-hard sports fans may also find their way here thanks to the city's rugby links. Benetton Rugby Treviso plays in the highest European competitions, and international matches are held at its stadium.
