Find your own path through that maze of bridges, canals, alleys and monuments which makes the heart of the Centro Storico. Leave your luggage at the hotel, and hit the streets. You won`t regret a single second. Enjoy.
2. Piazza San Marco

It is said that Napoleon called San Marco "the drawing room of Europe." And it is a breathtakingly beautiful place. But the square has long been a lure for massive numbers of pigeons, drawn by the massive numbers of tourists who readily feed them. While the tourists happily post for photos amid the flock, there are concerns that the birds' presence--and what they leave behind--will damage the centuries old architecture and art work.

I’ve visited St. Mark’s Square many times but truly enjoyed this visit. While the piazza was crowded and even flooded during high tide, the waters quickly diminished, the weather was beautiful and there are enough opportunities to get the perfect photos!

Dating back to the 16th-century, this is the oldest Jewish Ghetto in the world with its five synagogues, which are the oldest still existing.

When you describe the experience of visiting Venice, it seems to always include St Mark', the Doge's Palace, the Rialto Bridge, the Grand Canal and perhaps a day in Murano across the lagoon. We stayed in the Canneregio neighborhood and enjoyed a part of Venice that is a little removed from the main tourist areas. It is also where the Jewish ghetto is and we found it to be a very interesting place to wander about and explore. The story of Jews in Venice is fascinating. Our visit to the Jewish museum on the Campo del Ghetto Nuovo gave us a better understanding of the role that Jews played in the social and economic history of Venice. The tour they offer of the old synagogues in the ghetto is also excellent to help understand the religious traditions Jews brought to Venice. As in other parts of Venice, there are canals, narrow streets, and squares; but here there are also old gates intended to lock in residents of the ghetto after dark. There is also an excellent kosher restaurant, Gam Gam, nearby that serves some really good food and should not be missed. Right down the street from the restaurant is a wonderful pastry shop .... another reason to visit the ghetto.
