Il celebre Palazzo della Ragione a Padova

Il celebre Palazzo della Ragione a Padova.
Se siete di passaggio nella bella città di Padova non potete mancare di visitare il centro storico e, tappa obbligata è, piazza delle Erbe con il suo celeberrimo Palazzo della Ragione.
I suoi portici e le tre schiere di archi lo rendono riconoscibilissimo.

Il palazzo della Ragione (detto anche Salone, per sineddoche) era l’antica sede dei tribunali cittadini e del mercato coperto di Padova. La parte inferiore era già esistente nel 1166, ma si stima che sia stato eretto tra il 1218 e il 1219, e tra il 1306 e il 1309 Giovanni degli Eremitani fece aggiungere il porticato e le logge e fece innalzare la copertura a cui diede la caratteristica forma di carena di nave rovesciata.

The facade of the Basilica of Saint Anthony of Padua

La facciata della Basilica di Sant'Antonio da Padova

The facade of the Basilica of Saint Anthony of Padua.
And here is the church of the Saint, one of the largest religious buildings in Italy, in Padua.
A little Romanesque (the gabled facade), Gothic (the flying buttresses) and Byzantine (the dome) perfectly harmonized.
It houses the remains of one of the most venerated Saints in the Christian world.

However, it is not the city's cathedral, a title that belongs to the cathedral. The relics of Saint Anthony of Padua and his tomb are kept there.

The starry ceiling of the Basilica of Saint Anthony of Padua

Il soffitto stellato della Basilica di Sant'Antonio di Padova

The starry ceiling of the Basilica of Saint Anthony of Padua.
When visiting Padua I could not miss entering the Basilica of the Saint.
In addition to the famous chapel, I was impressed, in the presbytery behind the main altar, by the blue ceiling decorated with golden stars.
If I am not mistaken, these frescoes were created by Casanova and were damaged by the great earthquake that hit North-West Italy on May 29, 2012.

La Torre dell’Orologio del Palazzo del Capitanio a Padova

La Torre dell’Orologio del Palazzo del Capitanio a Padova.
Il bell’orologio che con la torre ed il palazzo che domina uno dei lati di piazza dei Signori a Padova.
Non sto a raccontarvi le informazioni più tecniche, che comunque potete trovare più in basso nel quote di Wiki, ma solo la leggenda sulla mancanza del segno della Bilancia che leggenda popolare (quasi sicuramente falsa) dice non sia stata inserita per critica del costruttore per mancanza di giustizia in quanto pagato meno del pattuito.

L’orologio astronomico che domina la piazza è la più antica macchina del suo genere che si conservi al mondo e con il diametro di 5,6 m è anche uno dei più grandi. La corniciatura, caratterizzata da paraste ioniche, si deve a Giovanni Maria Falconetto che restaurò il prospetto della torre su committenza di Vitale Lando nel 1537.

A colorful alley in the city of Padua

Uno vicolo colorato della città di Padova

A colorful alley in the city of Padua.
Walking through the city of Padua I walked along this beautiful alley with its arcades and it reminded me a lot of the Ligurian alleys that are so familiar to me.
To tell the truth, Padua has a lot of arcades and I discovered that it is the second largest European city for these.

The porticos in the centre of Padua extend for approximately 25 km,[29] placing Padua in second place behind Bologna, which has a network of porticos as extensive and branched as any other in Europe.[30] The construction of porticos in the city is an ancient tradition, and some can be found in Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Neoclassical and modern styles.

The statues and the small canal of Prato della Valle in Padua

Le statue e il piccolo canale di Prato della Valle a Padova

The statues and the small canal of Prato della Valle in Padua.
A few months ago I visited the city of Padua and I found a really beautiful town.
This, in particular, is Prato della Valle (considered one of the largest squares in Europe); a rounded open space of the city where you can walk.
From this square starts the pedestrian street (here in Liguria we will call the carrugio) that crosses the entire center of the city.

The statues were fundamental to the transformation of the Prato not only visually but also financially. In fact, they were paid for by individual citizens or groups upon payment of a sum that could vary between 135 and 150 zecchini and which served both for the living cost of the statue and as a contribution to the general works of the Prato.
