  2. You’ll also hear about the Campanile (Bell Tower) and the Procuratie, which once served as governmental and commercial buildings, forming the backbone of the Venetian Republic’s administrative life. This square once served as a center of public life, religious rituals, and international diplomacy. Continue the walking tour through the narrow alleyways and wide campos of Venice to Campo SS. Giovanni e Paolo, a massive Gothic church often called the “Pantheon of Venice” for its many doges buried inside. Alongside, you’ll view the Scuola Grande di San Marco—a Renaissance masterpiece that reflects the charitable and artistic culture of the Venetian Republic.

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.
