Venice (Italian: Venezia) is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region. It is situated on a group of 118 small islands that are separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges. The islands are located in the shallow Venetian Lagoon, an enclosed bay that lies between the mouths of the Po and the Piave rivers (more exactly between the Brenta and the Sile). In 2018, 260,897 people resided in the Comune di Venezia, of whom around 55,000 live in the historical city of Venice (Centro Storico).

In this video:
- WHAT are the major attractions that you can't go home without having seen in you Venice holidays, including Ponte di Rialto, Grand Canal, Saint Mark's Square, St. Mark’s Basilica, Campanile, Doge’s Palace, Bridge of Sighs, Scala Contarini del Bovolo, Gallerie dell’Accademia, Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, the Jewish Ghetto, the islands of Burano, Murano and Torcello.
- Then, I’ll describe to you HOW to follow a 1 or 2 days tour to better visit the city, with a clear map of Venice, Italy, and tips about places to eat Italian food (venice italy food is something to experience!).
Finally, we’ll discover WHY to visit Venice, a city so unique that you can’t expect.
WHAT
Well, 118 small islands separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges.
The first real financial power emerging in the 9th century.
You can call it La Serenissima, the “Queen of the Adriatic, the City of Masks”, the City of Bridges, the City of Water.
We are speaking probably about the most beautiful city all around the world!
So, if you have a couple of days to visit it and you don’t wanna getting lost, below the most relevant attractions to see and places to taste Italian food.
Ponte di Rialto
The first treasure you will meet from the train station probably is Ponte di Rialto, the most iconic bridge how the city, which will bring you in San Marco district, the center of Venice.
Grand Canal
From here you can admire Grand Canal, the main “route” in Venice.
Here, consider to ride a Vaporetto, a water bus, which is a great way – and the least expensive one – to visit the Canal and its palaces.
St. Mark's Square
From Ponte Rialto move towards St. Mark's Square, where you can admire 4 of the Venice’s major attractions: St. Mark’s Basilica, a Byzantine marvel, Campanile, Torre dell’Orologio, and the Doge’s Palace – a Gothic palace, seat of the government under the Venetian Republic.
After seeing the wonders of St. Mark's Square, you could add these nearby attractions to your trip.
Bridge of Sighs
The name Bridge of Sighs derives from the fact that it was the last thing convicts saw before their incarceration.
Scala Contarini del Bovolo
The so-called Snail Staircase must rank as one of the best hidden treasure of Venice.
This gothic staircase was tacked on to the outside the palace in 1499.
Gallerie dell’Accademia
The best known piece here is the Vitruvian man by Da Vinci, which shows the ideal proportions of man.
Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute
The second most important church in Venice, the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute has a Baroque design and was completed in 1687.
Walk around the Jewish Ghetto
The word ghetto originated in Venice in 1516.
HOW
How you could easily visit Venice in 1 or 2 days?
If you arrive by train or by bus from the airport, I suggest you follow this daily route: move then to Ponte di Rialto. From there, reach St. Mark's Square. Once visited its attractions, you could go to Bridge of Sighs, Scala Contarini Del Bovolo, Gallerie Dell’accademia, Basilica Di Santa Maria Della Salute, to end walking around the Jewish Ghetto. In the video’s map, each attraction is no more than 20 minutes walk from each other.
If you want visit the islands of Burano, Murano and Torcello, it takes 5 hours and costs 20 euros with the Serevè Agency.
For lunch, I suggest a quick but tasty meal at Enoteca Al Volto.
In the afternoon, you can refresh yourself with an ice cream in Suso Gelatoteca.
For dinner, I suggest Trattoria da'a Marisa.
We stayed at San Gallo Hotel ( in a real good location, 50 teeters from St. Mark's Square.
WHY
If you are planning to visit Europe, why you should visit Venice?
It will be something like going back to the past, which means you will find exactly the same views seen by Casanova or Napoleon.
Venice is a city on the water, something of unique.
Tasting Italian food, is another good reason!
But the main reason is its beauty: “beauty will save the world”, probably, but for sure this beauty will make you happy!

Female: I love the Crypts & Catacombs Tour because it's an underground adventure. We visit the catacombs, we visit St. Clement's Church, and we visit the bone crypt covered with 3,700 Capuchin friar's skeletons.
Narrator: Our bus is just there for us. Make yourselves comfortable, rest those feet. All right, this corridor has a few of the tombs that have not been disturbed. The group sizes are really small. so that's nice. The Normans came to Rome and they burned St. Clement's church. So in the early 12th century they built a new church to Clement on top of the old one. We have special access to a lot of our sites where we get to go through our own entrance way just for City Wonders clients.
So welcome to the Capuchin crypt. We have six rooms, five of which are entirely decorated with the bones of the Capuchins. Most visitors coming to Rome barely touch the tip of the iceberg, but this tour allows us to go 20 meters, 60 feet below the street level. Our visitors come away with a greater appreciation of Rome as the archaeological lasagna and all the layers of history.
Venice and Its Lagoon
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | Venice, more than any other European city, has an endlessly seductive charm. For centuries, it was nicknamed La Serenissima, The Most Serenely Beautiful One— and for good reason. Along with sampling the sumptuous art treasures of Venice and exploring its back-street wonders, we'll cruise its lagoon, stopping in fiery Murano for glass, pastel Burano for lace, and murky Torcello for a sense of where Venice was born.

Venice: City of Dreams
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | After sorting through the monuments of Venice's powerful past, we'll trace its decline from Europe's most powerful city to its most hedonistic one. We'll cruise the Grand Canal, luxuriate in a venerable café, and savor fresh fish canal-side with Venetian friends. Becoming as anonymous as possible in this city of masks, we'll be dazzled by masterpieces of the Venetian Renaissance and get intimate with the city of Casanova...on a gondola in the moonlight.

A Trip to Venice, Italy
(from Wikipedia) Venice (Italian: Venezia, Venetian: Venezsia, Latin: Venetia) is a city in northern Italy, the capital of region Veneto, and has a population of 271,251 (census estimate January 1, 2004). Together with Padua, the city is included in the Padua-Venice Metropolitan Area (population 1,600,000). Venice has been known as the Queen of the Adriatic, City of Water, City of Bridges, and The City of Light.
The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers. The population estimate of 272,000 inhabitants includes the population of the whole Comune of Venezia; around 62,000 in the historic city of Venice (Centro storico); 176,000 in Terraferma (the Mainland), mostly in the large frazione of Mestre and Marghera; and 31,000 live on other islands in the lagoon.
The Venetian Republic was a major maritime power and a staging area for the Fourth Crusade, as well as a very important center of commerce (especially silk, grain and spice trade) and art in the Renaissance and up to the end of the 17th century.
