Ghetto Ebraico10 min
Walk through the Jewish Ghetto of Venice.
Cannaregio30 min
In Cannaregio we find the Venice Santa Lucia station and the main street, called Strada Nova, which connects the station to the Rialto area. There is also the Jewish Ghetto, an area where the Jewish community was obliged to live in the Napoleonic era.
The main shopping streets are Strada Nova and Lista di Spagna, but also frequented by young people for bars or as meeting places.
Do not miss the area of clubs and restaurants in Cannaregio which is located in the northern part of the sestiere, more precisely between the Jewish Ghetto and the Fondamenta Nuove. To date, the sestiere fully represents one of the places of entertainment in Venice.
San Polo30 min
The San Polo district is the smallest of the six in Venice and is much loved for the relaxed atmosphere that can be felt walking around its narrow streets; at one time, however, it was one with the Sestiere of Santa Croce. It is a very characteristic district given the rich presence of "houses and shops", or places where people live and carry out their work, as well as the variety of typical Venetian taverns that take the name of "bacari".
Its name derives from the presence of Campo San Polo, the largest square after that of San Marco, and of the homonymous church in the district. Although it has always been considered a people's square, as events and public celebrations took place here, this square is surrounded by stately palaces.
Ponte di Rialto60 min
The Rialto Bridge is the oldest of the four bridges on the Grand Canal. It is famous for both its architecture and its history. For years it was the hub of the economy of Venice.
The Rialto Bridge was built between 1588 and 1591, based on a project by the architect Antonio da Ponte, to replace the previous wooden structure, which collapsed twice and burned on various occasions.
The structure of the bridge is similar to the previous ones and consists of two inclined ramps joined by a portico in the center.
Piazza San Marco60 min
he called it "the most beautiful salon in Europe".
It was built in the 9th century and paved in 1177, 100 years after its construction.
Piazza San Marco is the lowest area of Venice and, therefore, is the first area to be flooded with high water.
The most important buildings in the square are the Basilica of San Marco, the Doge's Palace, the Correr Museum, the Campanile and the Clock Tower.
Canal Grande30 min
We will take the ferry boat back to the railway station.
