Este

I recently went for a quick visit to the quaint town of Este, which sits about 30 km south of Lumignano, in the Province of Padua.

It has quite the medieval castle: Castello dei Carraresi; the castle and it's walls are well-preserved and particularly impressive.


I don't think that Este is on the foreign tourist route.
It is a lovely little town.


The grounds of the castle have been transformed into a public park.




Visiting on a sunny, almost-warm February day was nice; seeing lots of green vegetation was really nice.

Don't be fooled. Spring is not just around the corner. We are, however, finally seeing more of the glorious sun.
