WALKING SIGHTSEEING TOURS CAN BE ARRANGED FOR THE
FOLLOWING PLACES*
VENICE*S GHETTO*
THE OLDEST GHETTO IN EUROPE HAS FIVE SYNAGOGUES,
A JEWISH MUSEUM, AND A KOSHER RESTAURANT.
MURANO, THE GLASS ISLAND*
IN 1296, THE GLASSBLOWERS OF VENICE MOVED TO AN
ISLAND CALLED MURANO. SEVEN HUNDRED YEARS LATER,
THEIR DESCENDANTS ARE STILL TURNING SAND INTO
GOLD.
PIAZZA SAN MARCO*
NAPOLEON CALLED IT *THE FINEST DRAWING ROOM IN
EUROPE, BUT HOW MANY LIVING ROOMS HAVE PIGEONS
AND OUTDOOR CAFFE TABLES*
ST. MARK*S BASIN, SALUTE CHURCH, THE ISLAND OF
GIUDECCA, AND OTHER VENICE LANDMARKS.
SAN LAZZARO DEGLI ARMENI*
35 MONKS, SEMINARIANS, AND ARMENIAN STUDENTS LIVE
ON A MONASTERY ISLAND THAT ONCE SERVED AS A LEPER
COLONY.
THE VENETIAN LAGOON*
VENICE ISN*T JUST PALACES, CHURCHES, AND ART
MUSEUMS. THE CITY SITS IN THE MIDDLE OF A LAGOON
THAT IS RICH IN WILDLIFE AND TRADITION.
VENICE TO CHIOGGIA*
CHIOGGIA, A BUSY FISHING PORT AT THE SOUTHERN TIP
OF THE VENETIAN LAGOON, IS AN HOUR AND A HALF
FROM VENICE BY BUS AND FERRY.
CHURCHES*
MADONNA DELL*ORTO*
*VENICE*S FINEST GOTHIC CHURCH* IS A GREAT
STARTING POINT FOR A WALKING TOUR THROUGH ONE OF
THE CITY*S MOST PLEASANT BUT LEAST TOURISTED
NEIGHBORHOODS.
SANTA MARIA DELLA SALUTE CHURCH*
AS YOU STARE UP AT THE SOARING DOME OF THIS
MAGNIFICENT BASILICA, REMEMBER THAT IT OWES ITS
EXISTENCE TO PLAGUE-RIDDEN FLEAS.
OTHER STRUCTURES*
BRIDGE OF SIGHS*
LORD BYRON ROMANTICIZED THIS ELEVATED CORRIDOR
FOR CRIMINALS, AND YOU CAN CROSS IT AS A PAYING
CUSTOMER RATHER THAN AS A PRISONER.
CAMPANILE DI SAN MARCO*
VENICE*S 325-FOOT BELL TOWER ISN*T WHAT IT
APPEARS TO BE, BUT THE VIEW FROM THE TOP IS
UNSURPASSED.
DOGANA DI MARE*
VENICE*S MARITIME CUSTOMS HOUSE WAS BUILT IN THE
17TH CENTURY. ITS WEDGE-SHAPED PROMENADE OFFERS
GREAT VIEWS ACROSS THE GRAND CANAL AND ST. MARK*S
BASIN.
RIALTO BRIDGE*
IT ISN*T JUST A BROOKLYN BRIDGE WITH BOUTIQUES.
AFTER 500 YEARS, THE PONTE DI RIALTO IS STILL
VENICE*S MAIN TRAFFIC ROUTE ACROSS THE GRAND
CANAL.
