Places to see in ( Brescia - Italy )
Brescia is a city in the northern Italian region of Lombardy. On the eastern outskirts is the San Salvatore–Santa Giulia complex. This former monastery includes a basilica, cloisters and the Santa Giulia Museum, with items including Roman bronzes and medieval frescoes. On Cidneo Hill, Brescia Castle has a drawbridge and ramparts, plus the Luigi Marzoli Arms Museum, exhibiting ancient weapons and armor.
First impressions of Brescia may be mixed - when we visited we were disconcerted to find that the usual vaguely dodgy loiterers who hang around near railway stations were augmented by several beggars, and the seediness seemed to spread a long way into the surrounding streets. Brescia has grown larger and more industrialised in recent decades, with a new commercial district outside the historic centre, called Brescia Due. However, along with business prosperity has come a wave of immigration and new social problems. It's important to remember that although the central historic area is fairly compact, this is a large modern city with all that that entails.
The centre of Brescia, with its historic squares and lanes, is manageable on foot; a guidebook or map is useful for getting your bearings and establishing the chronology of this ancient city. Roman Brescia was called Brixia, a settlement that had already existed for hundreds of years, founded by Gauls. The Roman Forum was situated beneath the earlier hill stronghold along what is now Via Musei (but was the Decumanus Maximus). The Capitolium here, in modern-day Piazza del Foro, was the heart of town; a temple built by the Emperor Vespasian over earlier Republican-era buildings was discovered here in the nineteenth century, and has been partially reconstructed. Alongside is the town's Roman theatre. Further down Via Musei is the main town museum, the Museo della Città or Museo di Santa Giulia. The museum houses an extensive collection of local exhibits, with archaeological finds and collections from all periods of Brescia's past. It's housed in a monastery complex, Santa Giulia, which has a long and rich history and incorporates the Church of San Salvatore, begun by the Lombards in the eighth century.
Most Italian towns, when they felt the need for a grand new cathedral, simply amended or replaced their existing duomo. In Brescia, however, the new church was built alongside the old one, so visitors can visit an unusual example of an earlier church. The historic duomo, the Duomo Vecchio (or Rotonda) in Piazza Paolo VI is totally dwarfed by its imposing successor, the Duomo Nuovo, but the older of the two churches is by far the more interesting. The site has a long history; the building dates to the end of the eleventh century but is built on the site of an earlier basilica, which in turn was founded on Roman buildings. It's an unusual circular Romanesque church, with a calm atmosphere, some lovely decoration and chances to glimpse mosaics left from the earlier buildings on the site.
When you're exploring, you'll undoubtedly pass through Piazza della Vittoria, a large Fascist-era square (designed by Marcello Piacentini, the architect behind the EUR district of Rome). It's a striking example of 1930s architecture but it's unloved and used mainly as a car park. The town's older squares are much more appealing and lively, as are the nearby pedestrian shopping streets.
Piazza della Loggia is the prettiest square, and the seat of local administration. It's a good first stop for tourists as it's the location of the town's main tourist information office (open Monday-Friday 9:30am-12:30pm and 2pm-5:30pm; Saturdays 9:30am-1pm). The Renaissance Palazzo della Loggia, the town hall, was finished in the late sixteenth century with input from various architects including Jacopo Sansovino and Andrea Palladio. The clock tower (Torre dell'Orologio) here is reminiscent of the famous one in Venice, even down to the two crowning figures striking a bell (Venice: Torre dell'Orologio).
From Via dei Musei, winding lanes wind up to the Colle Cidneo hill, now a wooded park, which shadows the oldest part of the town. This was the site of the earliest settlement, dating back to the Bronze Age. On the summit is the town's Castello, a castle built on Roman foundations, now housing museums of weaponry and of the Italian Risorgimento.

Brescia is a city and comune in the region of Lombardy in northern Italy. It is situated at the foot of the Alps, a few kilometres from the lakes Garda and Iseo. Founded over 3,200 years ago, Brescia (in antiquity Brixia) has been an important regional centre since pre-Roman times. Its old town contains the best-preserved Roman public buildings in northern Italy and numerous monuments, among these the medieval castle, the Old and New cathedral, the Renaissance Piazza della Loggia and the rationalist Piazza della Vittoria. The monumental archaeological area of the Roman forum and the monastic complex of San Salvatore-Santa Giulia have become a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of a group of seven inscribed as Longobards in Italy, Places of Power.
Brescia is considered the industrial capital of Italy. The metallurgy and the production of machine tools and firearms are of particular economic significance, along with mechanical and automotive engineering. The major companies based in the city are utility company A2A, steel producer Lucchini, firearms manufacturer Beretta, shotgun producer Perazzi, machine tools manufacturer Camozzi and gas control manufacturer Cavagna Group. Nicknamed Leonessa d'Italia (The Lioness of Italy), Brescia is the home of Italian caviar, and is known for being the original production area of the Franciacorta sparkling wine as well as the prestigious Mille Miglia classic car race that starts and ends in the city. In addition, Brescia is the setting for most of the action in Alessandro Manzoni's 1822 play Adelchi. Brescia and its territory will be the European Region of Gastronomy in 2017.
Brescia is located in the north-western section of the Po Valley, at the foot of the Brescian Prealps, between the Mella and the Naviglio, with the Lake Iseo to the west and the Lake Garda to the east. The southern area of the city is flat, while towards the north the territory becomes hilly.

Brescia - Italy (HD1080p)
คำอธิบาย
BRESCIA - All of Italy in one city
Promotional video of the city of Brescia and its surroundings, which describes the main monuments, the areas of tourist interest - Lake Garda, Lake Iseo and Franciacorta, Lake Idro, the Valtrompia Valley, the Camonica Valley, the Sabbia Valley, the Brescia plain - and the main activities that can be done
Top 10 Places Around the Italian Lakes
Top 10 Places Around the Italian Lakes according to DK
10. Sirmione and Southern Lake Garda
Sirmione is a comune in the province of Brescia. It is bounded by the comunes of Desenzano del Garda (Lombardy) and Peschiera del Garda in the province of Verona and the region of Veneto. It has a historical centre which is located on the Sirmio peninsula that divides the lower part of Lake Garda.
9. Lake Idro and the Valvestino
Lake Idro is an Italian prealpine lake of glacial origin situated largely within the Province of Brescia and in part in Trentino. The lake is surrounded by wooded mountains. The shoreline of some 24 km is shared between four communes: Idro (the frazioni Crone and Belprato), from which the lake takes its name, Anfo, Bagolino (fraz. Ponte Caffaro) and Bondone (fraz. Baitoni).
8. Bergamo
Bergamo is a pretty town of some 120,000 people nestling in the foothills of the Alps. Widely acclaimed as a city of rare beauty, Bergamo is famous for its wealth of artistic treasures and enchanting medieval atmosphere. It is a real life tale of two cities: Città Bassa, the busy and modern lower city, and Città Alta, the upper city with its rich heritage of art and history.
7. Centro Lago and its Villages
At the centre of Lake Como -- the Centro Lago -- where the three branches of the lake meet, stands Bellagio, with its pretty village centre of stepped streets
6. Verona
Verona is a cityin north-eastern Italy's Veneto region most famous as the setting for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Though close to the more popular tourist destination of Venice, many people consider Verona a more relaxed and pleasant place to visit. There are many tourists, but the number of tourists per square meter is lower.
5. Milan
Milan is financially the most important city in Italy. In essence, for a tourist, what makes Milan interesting compared to other places is that the city is truly more about the lifestyle of enjoying worldly pleasures: a paradise for shopping, football, opera, and nightlife. Milan remains the marketplace for Italian fashion -- fashion aficionados, supermodels and international paparazzi descend upon the city twice a year for its spring and autumn fairs.
4. Como
Como has always been an area of intense activity, as it has acted over the centuries as a crossing point between Central Europe and the Mediterranean. Built by the Romans at the end of the Piedmont road, it was an important communication point between Rome and its northern territories. In more recent times Como became famed for its silk.
3. Orta San Giulio
Orta San Giulio is a town and comune in the Province of Novara in the Italian region of Piedmont, located about 100 km northeast of Turin and about 40 km northwest of Novara. The town itself is built on a promontory which juts out from the eastern bank of Lake Orta close to Isola San Giulio, an island which also falls within the municipal boundaries.
2. Northern Lake Maggiore
With a length of 68 km and a coastline of over 150 km the glacial Lake Maggiore stretches from the Swiss canton Ticino in the north into the two major Italian regions Piedmont and Lombardy. Since the climate is mild year-round, the area is filled with Mediterranean vegetation and exotic plants. Surrounded by beautiful lake shore towns and villages with lush botanical gardens, amazing islands and a backdrop of Swiss mountain peaks the Lake Maggiore has become a top tourist destination, mainly for central and northern Europe tourists.
1. Isola Bella
Isola Bella (lit. 'beautiful island') is one of the Borromean Islands of Lago Maggiore in north Italy. The island is situated in the Borromean Gulf 400 metres from the lakeside town of Stresa. Isola Bella is 320 metres long by 400 metres wide and is divided between the Palace, its Italianate garden, and a small fishing village.
