Itinerary
Grand Canal
30 minsAdmission Ticket FreeFlowing through the heart of Venice, the Grand Canal is a sight to behold. Spanning over 2 miles in length and shaped like a backward "S," this iconic waterway weaves its way through the city, connecting captivating neighborhoods and showcasing the architectural wonders of Venice. Embark on a journey along the Grand Canal and witness the grandeur of the palaces, churches, and buildings that line its banks. Marvel at their intricate designs, adorned with colorful facades and elegant details, reflecting centuries of Venetian history and cultural richness. As you glide along the shimmering waters, soak in the vibrant atmosphere of Venetian life. Admire the graceful gondolas and vaporettos as they navigate the canal, transporting both locals and visitors to their destinations.Teatro La Fenice(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeIn the late 18th century, Venice boasted seven ancient theaters, two dedicated to drama and the rest to music. The most luxurious among them was the Teatro San Benedetto, located near Campo San Luca. Established by the Grimani family in 1755, it was later handed over to the Noble Society of box holders. However, due to a judicial agreement in 1787, the society was expelled and compelled to surrender the theater to the Venier nobles, who owned the land on which the building stood. The society promptly set out to construct a new and grander theater, which would be called Gran Teatro La Fenice, like the mythical and immortal bird mentioned by Herodotus in his Histories. Just as the phoenix is capable of rising from its own ashes, this new theater would symbolize society's rebirth from its misfortunes.Ponte de le Ostreghe(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeThere are numerous toponymic persistences that recall a widespread presence in the past, somewhat throughout the city, of horticultural activities or in any case of undeveloped areas covered with vegetation, among which we can mention the campi, campaign, and courtyards of the grass or the calluses of the fighter. The first certain attestation of the Rio dell'Alboro dates back to 1696, while that of the Rio de le Ostreghe joins it in the following century. It is probable that a seller of these delicious seafood was stationed nearby, the cultivation of which in the lagoon had a significant boost especially in the first half of the 19th century, leaving evidence also in the ostregheri canal of the same name, today Canale dei Lavraneri, in Sacca Fisola.Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeSanta Maria della Salute, located in Venice, is a magnificent basilica that stands as a symbol of gratitude and hope. Built-in the 17th century, it was dedicated to the Virgin Mary to commemorate the city's deliverance from the devastating plague. Its impressive domed structure and elegant Baroque design make it a standout architectural gem along the Grand Canal. The interior is adorned with exquisite artworks and elaborate decorations, creating a sense of awe for visitors. Today, Santa Maria della Salute remains an important religious and cultural landmark in Venice, drawing both locals and tourists to marvel at its beauty and significance.
