Entrance is free, and the visit is truly breathtaking.
The chapel with the remains of the Saint is exciting and of rare beauty, as is the starry vault of the entire basilica.
It can also be visited during functions, because the central area is cordoned off, while still leaving ample space for tourists on the sides to visit the side nave and the chapels, including the one with the reliquary of St. Anthony.
The center of Padua is worth a visit, especially in the evening, with illuminated clubs and squares.
