Things to do in  Treviso

Overshadowed by nearby Venice, Treviso offers a similar canal-crossed medieval center without the crowds of its famous neighbor. The city is a peaceful base for forays into Venice (just a 30-minute train ride away) and wine-tasting excursions through the Prosecco hills, plus its cobbled streets are lined with enough historic churches, excellent museums, and the giggle-inducing Fontana delle Tette—the translation of which is, ahem, NSFW—to fill a day of sightseeing, especially when paired with a cooking class dedicated to Treviso’s most famous dish: tiramisù.
