Venice's Best Walks
Venice's Best...
KEN WELSH / GETTY IMAGES
Ooooooeeeee! Gondoliers call out in narrow canals. With the worlds highest density of Unesco-protected masterpieces, Venice will earn gasps from you too. Once youve seen palaces built on water, partied like Casanova in costume and eaten chorus lines of red-footed lagoon scallops,youll greet every canal bend with anticipation.
Basilica di San Marco ()Once you step inside these Gothic portals, the crowd hushes to a collective sigh. Glittering mosaics cover the basilicas domes with heavenly visions of hovering angels and skipping saints a uniquely uplifting experience.
Venice Top Sights
I Frari ()No one lights up a room quite like Titians red-hot Madonna at I Frari. Even in a vast Gothic cathedral lined with serene masterpieces and sombre tombs, you can almost warm your hands from her radiant glow.
Venice Top Sights
Rialto Market ()Supermarket specimens cant compare to glistening lagoon seafood at the Rialto Market, where one culinary secret has been kept in the open for 600 years: food tastes better when its fresh, seasonal and local.
Venice Top Sights
Gallerie dellAccademia ()Theyve been censored and stolen, raised eyebrows and inspired generosity: all the fuss over Venetian paintings becomes understandable here. Prepare for colour, drama and baroque portraits youll swear are winking at you.
Venice Top Sights
Chiesa di San Giorgio Maggiore ()Blinking is natural when faced with Palladios strikingly classical, white Istrian stone church, and its shimmering reflection in blue lagoon waters. But look further: youll find Tintorettos and contemporary art lurking in its shadows.
Venice Top Sights
Scuola Grande di San Rocco ()During Venices darkest days, flashes of genius appeared: Tintorettos loaded paintbrush streaked across the Scuola Grande di San Roccos ceilings like a lightning bolt, offering glimmers of hope in the long shadow of the plague.
Venice Top Sights
Palazzo Ducale ()Other cities have grim government offices; Venice has the Palazzo Ducale, a lacy pink Gothic palace lined with Renaissance masterpieces to impress visiting dignitaries (thats you). After 600 years, it still works like a charm.
Venice Top Sights
Peggy Guggenheim Collection ()She dodged Nazis, collected lovers and spent a fortune supporting avant-garde artists: Peggy Guggenheim broadened the worlds horizons with her palatial showcase of Kandinskys, Calders, Rothkos and other breakthrough modernists.
Venice Top Sights
Campo del Ghetto Nuovo & the Ghetto ()Explore the tiny island that offered refuge from the Inquisition, bailed out the Venetian empire and sparked a Renaissance in thought: the Ghetto, historical home of Venices Jewish community.
