Asolo, Treviso, Italy

We spent a lovely afternoon (passegiata - as us italians refer to it as) in Asolo a former and still refuge for the gentry of this region.  The social elite of Venice, Verona etc would have holiday homes (gran villa - as us italians refer to it as) here,  the castle in town is BC (I don't know what that means but someone as old as dad thinks that is old so it must be ancient).
