1. St. Mark's Square

Known by locals as El Piazza, St. Mark’s Square is a remarkably dynamic spot. By day it is teeming with tourists taking in the splendour of St Mark’s Basilica, the impressive façade of the Doge’s Palace and all the iconic sights of central Venice. By night it takes on a softer, more romantic atmosphere as couples emerge hand in hand to enjoy the softly illuminated Venetian cityscape.

4. St. Mark's Basilica

Whenever you come into the heart of Venice, you won’t be able to miss the striking façade of St Mark’s Basilica (Basilica di San Marco), known affectionately by locals as the Chiesa d’Oro (Church of Gold). With its dazzling golden spires, it towers over St Mark’s Square, a spectacular piece of Byzantine architecture and one of Venice’s most iconic and best loved sights with its walls ornately adored with sculptures, reliefs and mosaics.

6. Doge's Palace

Immediately recognisable for its pink marble façade, Doge’s Palace (Palazzo Ducale in Italian) stands tall and proud in the midst of St. Mark’s Square. With its arched loggias and its militaristic crenellations, the palace struck awe and not a little fear into the hearts of the visitors who arrived in Venice by sea over hundreds of years in former times.
