- Ghetto Venezia - Explore the Jewish Ghetto of Venice.
- Cannaregio - In Cannaregio, visitors will find the Venice Santa Lucia station and the main thoroughfare, Strada Nova, which links the station to the Rialto area. This district also houses the Jewish Ghetto, where the Jewish community was required to reside during the Napoleonic era.
The primary shopping streets are Strada Nova and Lista di Spagna, which are also popular with young people for bars and social gatherings.
Be sure to visit the vibrant area of clubs and restaurants in Cannaregio, located in the northern part of the sestiere, specifically between the Jewish Ghetto and the Fondamenta Nuove. Today, the sestiere is a key entertainment hub in Venice.
- San Polo - The San Polo district is the smallest of Venice’s six districts and is cherished for its relaxed atmosphere, felt while strolling through its narrow streets. Historically, it was once united with the Sestiere of Santa Croce. This district is notable for its abundance of “houses and shops,” where people live and work, as well as the variety of traditional Venetian taverns known as “bacari.”
The district’s name comes from Campo San Polo, the largest square after San Marco, and the church of the same name. Although traditionally considered a public square for events and celebrations, it is surrounded by elegant palaces.
- Ponte di Rialto - The Rialto Bridge is the oldest of the four bridges spanning the Grand Canal. It is renowned for its architectural beauty and historical significance. For many years, it was the economic center of Venice.
Constructed between 1588 and 1591, the Rialto Bridge was designed by architect Antonio da Ponte to replace the previous wooden structure, which had collapsed twice and suffered fires.
The bridge’s design mirrors its predecessors, featuring two inclined ramps connected by a central portico.
- Piazza San Marco - Described as “the most beautiful salon in Europe.”
Built in the 9th century and paved in 1177, a century after its construction, Piazza San Marco is the lowest point in Venice and thus the first to flood during high water.
The square is home to significant landmarks such as the Basilica of San Marco, the Doge’s Palace, the Correr Museum, the Campanile, and the Clock Tower.
- Canal Grande - The ferry boat will take us back to the railway station.
