We are getting the biggest American military base in Europe, two steps away from a beautiful historical city like Vicenza, without anyone asking our opinion as citizens or caring about the environmental impact of the project. How would the Americans feel if 20, 000 Italians decided to make a big ass base next to a quiet american town without the approval of the Americans? Please you cant condone that.

I was stationed in Vicenza from 2009-2011. Gotta agree with the convenience of travel to other amazing cities. Venice, Verona, Florence and Bologna are all pretty close, and Milan is only a little farther. Plus if you have a little more time, you can travel down the coast and visit a whole different country in San Marino, which is near a great beach in Rimini.

Army guy here, I liked Vicenza. I stayed on base when I visited. I spoke to a number of the citizens and they told me that the protesters were bussed in from farther south.
It is only like 30 min to Venice and Verona. The architecture was cool without a doubt.
The citizens were really nice people, especially compared to my staying in Berlin just before.

I really resent Vicenza. I lived in Padova 10 years ago as part of a work and language course, but then got sent to work in Villa Michelangelo which was totally out of the way of everything and my friends, I was isolated and alone and I just grew to hate this place. I'm sure if I visited again though and stayed more central it'll be better.

There are fireworks at the American NATO base every July 4th. Vicenza is one of the few cities in Europe which actually celebrate US Independence Day. LOL. My dad had to buy a Opel to replace his Ford which got stuck, jammed, in a Vicenza street. The Alps aren't far away and can be seen from Vicenza.

About the hotels in the area and in Italy in general: a common thing is to stay at apartments and family B&Bs. We stayed in a small village next to Vicenza and it was the best experience ever! B&B Le Stanze di Rosy was the name of the place.

My wife and I will be visiting vicenza the whole month of July. My plan is to learn as much Italian as I can, be as respectful as I can be, enjoy the beauty and history of the region, and avoid talking about politics as much as possible.

The airfield north of town is being turned into a NATO base, it will no longer be an airfield. You can see it under construction with Google Earth/Maps. The US military presence will double in size.

We love American people what we don t like is the Perennial American military presence, makes as feel we still POW since WW2, that s the only reason, but we welcome ordinary American citizen.
