You're standing at the Basilica di Santa Giustina, on the edge of the Prato della Valle, Padua's huge square. It's the largest church in the Veneto and one of the biggest in all of Italy. Take a look at the roof. There are eight domes, all covered in lead. The central one rises almost seventy metres, and right on top stands a copper statue of Saint Justina herself, about five metres tall. From down here she looks tiny.
