The Teatro Olimpico is a 16th century masterpiece designed by the famous Architect Andrea Palladio. It wasn't completed until 1585, after his death. It's still in use today. Overlooked, by most tourists, in favor of the more famous cities of Verona, and Venice, Vicenza is well worth the visit. I was fortunate enough to be stationed here as a young GI in the 80's.

Holy cow. This place is amazing. The set alone is worth the trip. Highly recommend visiting! You get a brief tour of the building learning about the history of how it was built and how it was salvaged during World War II. This is done on an iPad in whatever language you choose. Then you go into the theater itself for a light show. It’s breathtaking!

It is simply outstanding, the first indoor theatre of the world. I could sit in the grades and look at the stage for ages! It is simply a masterpiece. The last work of Palladio who died before completion.

There is an audiovisual show here to introduce the theatre. This remains an amazing sight in my view and the only thing missing is that you can't walk on the stage
