Riviera del Brenta : ウィキペディア英語版 | Riviera del Brenta
The Riviera del Brenta is the area surrounding the ''Naviglio del Brenta'' (a channel from the Brenta River), also known as ''Piovego'', which runs from downtown Padua across the Veneto countryside, through Stra, Fiesso d'Artico, Dolo, Mira, Oriago and Malcontenta to Fusina, which is part of the municipality of Venice, in the North-east of Italy. The ''Naviglio'' is navigable by river boats, whose best example is the famous ''Burchiello'', which once used to carry Venetian noblemen from Venice to the countryside and Padua and is now a tourist attraction. == History of the Venetian villas ==
From 16th to 18th century many Venetian aristocratic families built their beautiful villas here (like Villa Pisani in Stra, Villa Ferretti-Angeli in Dolo, Villa Widmann-Foscari in Mira, and Villa Foscari a.k.a. ''La Malcontenta'' in Malcontenta): they are indeed known as ''Ville venete'', Venetian villas. Noblemen used to re-invest their trade profit in big agricultural complexes. They were not just countryside manors, but real and self-sustainable production centres: they add fields all around, stables, barns, and the villages of the peasants. The villa was the name of this kind of complex, but it today refers to the manors only. Some of them have also beautiful gardens, with small woods, fountains, mazes and small lakes. The ''villa veneta'' is typical of all the region of Veneto, but the Riviera del Brenta is place to some of the most beautiful and famous, even if there are other exceptional examples of villas (like Villa Contarini, Villa Capra ''La Rotonda'' or Villa Barbarigo). Many of the villas are in the Palladian style, and a few were designed by Andrea Palladio himself or by his pupil Vincenzo Scamozzi.
