Cologna Veneta Italy

Southwest of Vicenza through the Berici hills on the way to Legnago is the quiet town of Cologna Veneta. First inhabited by the Euganei about 1000 B.C. and later colonized by the Romans, this quaint little town is famous for its Christmas candy which is eaten all over Italy as well as abroad called "Mandorlato".

Cologna Veneta makes for a great day trip along with Legnago just south of it and can even be included on a trip to Montagnana and Este to the east.  Each year the town holds a festival for its production of Mandorlato which takes place on the 8th of December when you can sample all the local varieties of the sweet.  Other festivals include the flower festival on the 1st Sunday of May and the annual country fair which takes place on September 8th.
