Venice is known for its canal systems and labyrinthine alleyways that span and intersect each other through the whole city, leaving you plenty of opportunities to get lost and find yourself again. Venice has both narrow alleys and wide open squares. The Gondola rides through the city’s canal system are a must-try. Apart from this, the medieval architecture of the entire city makes the city special.
The Doge Palace, the Gondola rides, St. Mark’s Basilica, Teatro La Fenice, and the Venice boat tours are among the best things to do and see in Venice.
Venice is more expensive than other Italian cities. The cafes, hotels, and attractions can be high-priced. However, the walks through the city’s interesting alleys come for free.
The Piazza San Marco, St. Mark’s Basilica, Doge’s palace, the grand canal, and the Museo corner are some of the must-visit places in Venice.
The best time to visit Venice is during the fall months- September to November. While it can get chilly during the evenings, the city tends to be relatively empty.
Toilets in Venice are clean, but expensive. You can instead find a café and order something before you use the washroom. It is likely to be cheaper.
