Camera degli Sposi, timed entry
Twenty minutes with Mantegna, then the ducal gardens.
Why only here
Mantua is a Renaissance court surrounded by water on three sides, with frescoed rooms that make you dizzy and a cycle path that leaves the city gate for the reeds. Slow by geography, not by marketing.
