## Living in Padua

Situated in the [Veneto](https://www.unipd.it/en/veneto-region) Region, in the heart of north-eastern Italy, and less than 40 km from Venice, [Padua](https://www.unipd.it/en/welcome-padua) is one of the most beautiful cities in Italy, with over 3,000 years of history.

---

### A UNIQUE SETTING

In Padua you will experience Italian arts, culture and lifestyle to the fullest. Our [historical centre](https://www.unipd.it/en/cultural-landmarks), with picturesque squares, palaces and museums, is appreciated by thousands of tourists every year. History and culture are combined with thriving businesses in every sector.

---

### STRATEGIC POSITION

Efficient air, rail and road transportation links with the main cities in Italy and abroad; an extended cycling path network (more than 170km) and multiple bike sharing options with special discounts for students represent the best and most sustainable way to [move around the city.](https://www.unipd.it/en/getting-around-padua)

---

### A STUDENT-CENTRED TOWN

Padua is a lively and dynamic city offering numerous [events](https://www.unipd.it/en/music-and-shows) in the fields of art, music, theatre, cinema and sport throughout the year. It is genuinely student-friendly, since it is deeply intertwined with the University, and students account for over 30% of the local population.
