Mestre
Mestre is the mainland suburb of Venice. There's nothing to see but factories, factories and factories. And an incredibly dodgy train station. It's basically a transition point for all transportation going to and coming out of Venice. Hotels Mestre
Padova
Padova is located in the middle of the rolling Venetian countryside, among the lagoon, the hills and the Pre-Alps. It is the main crossroads of all the roads that link the northeast of Italy, and is today recognized for its combination of historic tradition and new technology.
Padova offers architectural and artistic treasures of every era, such as the remains of the ancient Roman theatre, the Basilica of St. Anthony and the Scrovegni Chapel with its marvellous frescoes by Giotto.
A unique atmosphere can be experienced reaching the lagoon from Padova through the Riviera del Brenta River, admiring the ancient beauty of the Venetian Villas. An itinerary on a boat called 'Burchiello' leaves from the Portello stairs. Hotels Padova

Lido di Jesolo
Lido di Jesolo is a purpose-built beach resort in north-east Italy, on the Adriatic Sea close to Venice. Its miles of sandy beach, rows of sunbeds and night-time entertainment attract thousands of holidaymakers every summer. Entirely focussed on tourism, Lido di Jesolo is very different to other Italian towns. Its layout, its shops and its services are all designed for the convenience of the resort's summer visitors, giving it a rather strange and unreal atmosphere. Existence here feels very sheltered: clean, well-organised and safe. There are first-aid points and life guards, sunbeds and showers, snack-bars and ice-cream shops, mini-golf and climbing frames.
