    Where to stay

    Neighborhood guide

    Central districts around the main train station and old town put shops, restaurants, and transit connections within close reach, while the surrounding hills host quieter residential neighborhoods a short ride away. A central location makes the most of the city's compact public transit network.

    What to see

    Timed to the light

    Parks, palaces, and museums in the city center are enjoyable year-round, though the long daylight of late spring and summer suits wandering the surrounding vineyard-covered hillsides. Indoor museums are a comfortable option during cooler, wetter stretches.
