Venice is renowned for the beauty of its setting, its architecture and its artworks. The city in its entirety is listed as World Heritage Site, along with its lagoon.
Take a public water boat. Sit in the open area (if not available, wait for the place, take day tickets so you don't need to get down). Sit, relax, soak in and enjoy Venice's essence.
If in Venice for romance, think about taking a gondola ride around some of this fascinating network of canals. If not, take the public transport to get around - less costly but still the same beauty!
Most of these buildings date from the 13th to the 18th centuries and pose a Venetian-Gothic style. The best way to see these beautiful buildings is to travel by the vaporetto, the water bus.
To do: take the No.1 vaporetto ACTV linea 1 from Piazzale Roma to Piazza San Marco. To avoid crowd: Go in the late afternoon, as at this time of day, most people travel in the other direction.
