This past Wednesday, we went to Padua with UF. This city was very different from the previous cities we have visited because everything is much newer. Most of the buildings were built after WWII because the city was bombed. The time that we were in the city was quite uncomfortable because it was a little chilly outside and it was pouring down rain. Our professor was somewhat annoyed with us I believe because everyone was complaining and slowing him down. So, instead of staying in Padua for the entire day and going to our 3:00 tour, he let us leave around noon.
The first image below is a memorial to the events of September 11, 2001. It was designed by Daniel Libeskind. The structure contains a piece of steel from the Twin Towers.
The image above is a part of the university in Padua.
This is the Palazzo della Ragione, it is very similar to the Basilica here in Vicenza. Similar to the Banca Populare di Verona, TJ and I researched this building, so we had to tell the class about it.
This shows most of the students at V.I.A. and how we looked the entire day :(.
