The 10 Best Sights & Landmarks in Santa Croce, Veneto

August 15, 2021 Flossie Demartino

With its gondolas, canals, amazing restaurants, and unforgettable romantic ambiance, Venice is definitely a city for one's bucket list. Waterfront palazzos, palaces, and churches make drifting down the Grand Canal feel like cruising through a painting. To really experience Venice you must go to the opera or to a classical music performance, nibble fresh pasta and pastries, and linger in the exhibit halls of an art gallery. Label lovers will drool over the high-end shopping in Piazza San Marco.

Santa Croce

Reviewed By TheAngeloS - Hilliard, United States

We had this as our "home sestieri" for our visit to Venice. There seem to be two main pathways that most tourists take through to get from the train station to the Rialto. Wander about 10M off of those and it becomes a quiet, beautiful Venice. Find a small bar or pasticceria in this area and enjoy a little of living like a local.

Chiesa San Simeon Piccolo

Reviewed By StepandMel - Melbourne, Australia

This neoclassical style church has a gorgeous exterior with an interesting crypt below that you can tour with a guide. The church itself is right across from the main train station on the grand canal. It's worth heading over the bridge and inside for a look. To see the crypt below is quite interesting as it's at ground level not below the canal line.
