What Mira is actually like

Mira is a municipality in the province of Venezia, located along the banks of the Brenta River. This area is famed for its villas built by wealthy Venetians during the Renaissance. A special highlight is Villa Foscari, also known as La Malcontenta, designed by Andrea Palladio.  The community in Mira is characterized by its involvement in agriculture, which contributes to local cuisine with fresh, regional ingredients. Mira is also a great retreat from city life for all those who want to relax at their own pace.
