About Venetië

Venetië drijft in een lagune met ruim honderd eilanden: een autovrije stad van kanalen, paleizen en bruggen waar elke wandeling onverwacht eindigt.

Het Canal Grande slingert als een grote omgekeerde S door de stad, omzoomd door paleizen en overspannen door de Rialtobrug. Bij de monding verzamelt de Piazza San Marco de Sint-Marcusbasiliek met haar gouden mozaïeken, het Dogenpaleis, de Brug der Zuchten en de hoge bakstenen campanile. Vaporetto's en gondels tonen de stad vanuit de hoek waaruit ze bedoeld is om gezien te worden.

Top-ranked sights in Venetië: St. Mark's Square (Piazza San Marco), St. Mark's Basilica (Basilica di San Marco), Grand Canal.
