Venice Holidays - Italy: Things to Do - What, How and Why to visit the City

If you are planning to visit #Venice, in #Veneto - Italy, here you’ll find the best tips on things to do in the city, with a sightseeing map on the most relevant points of interest to enjoy, so you can easily imagine and organize your trip: WHAT to see and things to do in Venice, HOW to plan your visit, and WHY to discover Venice, the City of Water.

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!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Venice (, VEN-iss; Italian: Venezia [veˈnɛttsja] (listen); Venetian: Venesia, Venexia [veˈnɛsja]) is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region.
It is situated across 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). Parts of Venice are renowned for the beauty of their settings, their architecture, and artwork. The lagoon and a part of the city are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.In 2018, 260,897 people resided in Comune di Venezia, of whom around 55,000 live in the historical city of Venice (Centro storico). Together with Padua and Treviso, the city is included in the Padua-Treviso-Venice Metropolitan Area (PATREVE), with a total population of 2.6 million. PATREVE is only a statistical metropolitan area.The name is derived from the ancient Veneti people who inhabited the region by the 10th century BC. The city was historically the capital of the Republic of Venice. Venice has been known as the La Dominante, Serenissima, Queen of the Adriatic, City of Water, City of Masks, City of Bridges, The Floating City, and City of Canals.
The 697-1797 Republic of Venice was a major financial and maritime power during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and a staging area for the Crusades and the Battle of Lepanto, as well as a very important center of commerce (especially silk, grain, and spice) and art in the 13th century up to the end of the 17th century. The city-state of Venice is considered to have been the first real international financial center which gradually emerged from the 9th century to its peak in the 14th century. This made Venice a wealthy city throughout most of its history.It is also known for its several important artistic movements, especially the Renaissance period. After the Napoleonic Wars and the Congress of Vienna, the Republic was annexed by the Austrian Empire, until it became part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1866, following a referendum held as a result of the Third Italian War of Independence. Venice has played an important role in the history of symphonic and operatic music, and ...

Creepy Venice: Thomas Mann, Daphne du Maurier, Patricia Highsmith, Ian McEwan
University of Chicago

Rebecca West, William R. Kenan, Jr., Distinguished Service Professor Emerita in the Departments of Romance Languages and Literatures and Cinema and Media Studies

Venice is Italy's honeymoon city, a lushly romantic floating dream of gently gliding gondolas and quaint traffic-free streets and squares through which to meander. Some writers and film directors, however, have captured another dark, dangerous, and even positively macabre Venice. From Thomas Mann's infected city (Death in Venice) to Daphne du Maurier's haunted site of both past and future loss (Don't Look Now); from Patricia Highsmith's labyrinth in which a deadly cat-and-mouse game is carried out (Those Who Walk Away) to Ian McEwan's setting for erotic menace (The Comfort of Strangers), these books and film adaptations—of all but Highsmith's novel—give us a creepy Venice distinctly at odds with its image as a city for lovers. Let's explore the how and why of this alternative imagining of the Serenissima, Queen of the Adriatic.

Rebecca West taught courses and wrote scholarly books and articles on modern Italian literature, literary texts by women authors, and on film adaptation, among other cinema topics, for 40 years until her retirement in 2013. One of her current projects focuses on Patricia Highsmith's novels that are set in Italy. West is the William R. Kenan, Jr., Distinguished Service Professor Emerita in the Departments of Romance Languages and Literatures and Cinema and Media Studies.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Venice (, VEN-iss; Italian: Venezia [veˈnɛttsja] (listen); Venetian: Venesia, Venexia [veˈnɛsja]) is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region.
It is situated across 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). Parts of Venice are renowned for the beauty of their settings, their architecture, and artwork. The lagoon and a part of the city are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.In 2018, 260,897 people resided in Comune di Venezia, of whom around 55,000 live in the historic city of Venice (Centro storico). Together with Padua and Treviso, the city is included in the Padua-Treviso-Venice Metropolitan Area (PATREVE), with a total population of 2.6 million. PATREVE is only a statistical metropolitan area.The name is derived from the ancient Veneti people who inhabited the region by the 10th century BC. The city was historically the capital of the Republic of Venice. Venice has been known as the La Dominante, Serenissima, Queen of the Adriatic, City of Water, City of Masks, City of Bridges, The Floating City, and City of Canals.
