I am very interested in traveling and I like to visit various historical sites. This time I went to Padua, an ancient city located in Venice region. I got much pleasure form my trip there as I found many interesting sights in Padua. I went on various excursions around Padua that a friend of mine who lives there organized for me. We started my acquaintance with Padua with its prominent University. It was built in the 13th century and it was the second Italian university. A lot of famous people studied there. We also visited numerous churches there but I especially liked the church of St.Antonio. In the evenings I left the apartment I lived in and we went for walks around the city. We visited various local cafés and taverns, where I had an excellent opportunity to try delicious Italian food and wine. I especially liked lasagna and I even asked my friend to teach me to make it. On the whole, it was an unforgettable trip to Padua and the next time, when I travel to Venice region, my friend promised to show me Venice, the city on the water.
