Photo taken on June 8, 2013 shows the Piazza dei signori in Vicenza, Italy. Vicenza is situated in the Veneto region of northern Italy on the low hills between the mountains of Berici and Lessini, on a natural communication route. It represents a unique artistic achievement in the many architectural contributions from Italian architect Andrea Palladio integrated within its historic fabric and creating its overall character. A total of 26 individual buildings or parts of buildings known to have been designed or reconstructed by Palladio or attributed to him make up the World Heritage site - 23 in the city itself and three villas in its immediate environs.
