To see / To do

Even if it is sometimes packed with boats and taxis, even if it is saturated with tourists, the Grand Canal is still the most beautiful street in the world. The principal artery of the city divides the city of the Doges in two and separates thus the quarters of Cannaregio, San Marco and Castello from the quarters of San Polo, Santa Croce and Dorsoduro. The islands of the Venice laguna have lost the political and economic importance that they had in the past but have stayed picturesque and touristic. This section will show you all the major sites which will allow you to discover the secrets of Venice. continued...
