Sestiere Santa Croce is probably the most unknown part of Venice. It is situated next to the Piazzale Roma and therefore inevitable to those who start their exploring of Venice by foot. Nevertheless, most of the visitors turn left taking direction to Piazza San Rocco or along Canal Grande. I suggest you to turn right, deep into sestiere, and your effort will be awarded by some beautiful sights and, above all, quiet and uncrowded Venice. Leave a Comment

 Venetian courtyard by JetlagCity
Spending all your time in Piazza San Marco or at the Rialto Bridge will only get you part of the experience, and often it's the loudest, most crowded part, with the most trash on the ground. Away from the piazza and the Rialto you get a completely different feeling - quieter, more Venetian, less touristy. Less grand, but more charming perhaps, with laundry hanging out of windows and boys kicking soccer balls around in the little campos. Leave a Comment

Actually, San Marco is the smallest sestiere of the six into which the city of Venice is divided. Even though, it contains both the political and religious heart of the town. In fact, it is the only square in whole the city which concentrates more then fifteen centuries of history and art.
Piazzeta San Marco was the main door, the first sight of Venice that the travellers of long ago set eyes on. The two columns were the ideal door posts with, on their capitals, the patron saints of the city, Theodore and the lion of Saint Mark, which is the new patron. Leave a Comment

Punta della Dogana, named after the old Custom of the Venice Republic, stretches out into St. Mark's Basin, separating the Canal Grande from the Canal Guidecca. It is where the Baroque Chiesa della Madonna della Salute is situated, one of the most beautiful churches of Venice. Leave a Comment

 Ponte dei Sospiri by Profsmiley
It's quite easy to navigate through Venice once you figure out all the important venue names. There are signs all over the city, follow them if it's your first time. Otherwise, it's easy to find yourself in a maze :)
Taking this picture of Ponte dei Sospiri (Bridge of Sighs). The gondols moving along quietly... After a long day of exploring Venice, it was telling me - 'here, life goes on as it is... no matter how many tourists come along...' Leave a Comment

 One way Venice canal,
Italy by Martin_S.
And if you believe that I have a deal for you, the London Bridge is going cheap ^O^.
But seriously the canal here is narrow and many of the boats would not be able to pass each other, so it is restricted to one way, just like with us landlubbers. Leave a Comment
