Try to travel to Venice, Bologna, Firenze, and so on. If you like to go by bike, there are the Colli Euganei (very beautiful).
for banking, if you are german, take the "spar card" of "Post" you can take money without paying 4 times in the year.
Going to Padua it is helpfull to look for a room early, because there are no much rooms.
