Photo taken on June 8, 2013 shows a street view 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.
