First of all, it is necessary to take into account that Venice is a city located on the water and must certainly be paid in its dense chart at least a brief walk along the Grand Channel - the most important water artery of this city, which shares it into two parts.
The Grand Canal stretches from the Railway Station itself and to the famous San Marco Square, and there are over two hundred of the most luxurious Palazzo, which is best photographed from water along its shores. You can make such a walk on a comfortable river tram.
When you are on the tram to reach San Marco Square, then this place will actually be the beginning of your travel in Venice. In fact, it is this area and gave rise to the formation of the city. It was here in the ninth century in a small cathedral delivered the relics of the apostle Mark from Alexandria. And here they remained for eternal storage. In addition to the actual St. Mark's Cathedral on the square, a 99-meter bell tower is of particular interest, from which a stalking view of the city opens.

When you walk through the narrow and unusually winding streets of Venice, you will not be able to not notice a huge number of bridges, which are a total of over four hundred. Even through the Grand Canal, the whole four bridges permanently. By the way, the very first bridge that was thrown through the canal is Rialto Bridge. Now it is also considered one of Venice's business cards.
And right behind the bridge, the Rialto market is almost located, the most noisy and most famous in Venice, which is also considered an informal attraction of the city. Do not forget about numerous art galleries of the city, because it was here that such famous Italian masters as Titian, Bellini, Tintoretto, Carpaccio and many other masters belonged to the famous Venetian School of Painting. Perhaps the largest collection of their work is collected in the Gallery of the Academy, in which work is presented from the thirteenth and to the eighteenth century.
Also also pay attention to the Nice Museum of Fine Art, located in Palazzo Ka 'Rezzonico. In addition to the Venetian art of the eighteenth century, there are from life of prosperous Venetians - luxurious furniture, sculptures, interior items, clothing and accessories.
In medieval Venice, the monasteries and churches were charitable organizations that collected donations to their needs. They were called Sukola and there were eight in the city. Ploy at least one of them - San Rocco, which is under the Cathedral of Santa Maria-Gloriozi Dei Frari. In the sixteenth century, her walls were painted by such a well-known master as Yakolo Tintoretto and, in their amazing beauty, it can be compared unless with the Sicastine Chapel in the Vatican.
