Getting TO/AROUND: The Major Northern Italy train line runs right through the Veneto plain, conveniently connecting Venice, Padova, Vicenza and Verona. This is the Main line, and the rail network also has some smaller lines shooting off from this cities. From Padova you can connect to all train that head south (Toscana, Rome etc.). Past Verona you can continue to Milano, Torino etc. It is quite convenient to use the rail system. After purchasing you're ticket (biglietto) from the ticket office (biglietto) make sure you stamp your ticket at one of the little orange/yellow boxes BEFORE you board the train. For Venice, the only train station on the Island is Santa Lucia, near the end of the Granda canal; it's right by the "Ferovia" boat stop if you're doing the Venice public boat system. If arriving in Venice by train, do not get off at the "Venezia Mestre" stop; this is the last stop on the mainland, and not really Venice. You'll know when to get off at Venice becasue it is the last stop, everynoe else will be getting off, and it is after you go over the long stretch of water hading out to the Lagoon.

A great page about the area around Venice. Too often people just go for the obvious. | Nemorino Tue Aug 29, 2006 09:46 UTC
Fine overview of Veneto. Thanks for the train travel tip. We used to do a lot of traveling with our kids when they were younger, but now they're 35, 32 and 26 so they're on their own. | victorwkf Sun Aug 13, 2006 15:49 UTC
