[2025 Venice Attraction] Travel Guide for Grand Canal (Updated Mar)

I always prefer to visit cities that are outside the norm, but Italy is one of my favourite countries and Venezia (Venice) was calling for my attention to escape for a day trip. Mindful of the mere 30 million visitors to Venice every year, I wanted to try and do things a bit different to the usual tourist way and following an alternative itinerary as much as possible like a local. Why visit Venice? 1. Stunning architecture ⛪ 2. Vibrant and fiercely independent Venetian food scene 🍽️ 3. Uniqueness and independence 🛶🌊 4. Ideal for day trips ✈️ 5. Budget friendly if you know where to look! 👀💶 Landing at 9:20am at Marco Polo airport, I took the bus over to the Piazzale Roma, one of the only places where motorists are allowed in Venice. I headed straight to the Ponte di Rialto (Rialto Bridge, Picture 2) for views of the Grand Canal (Picture 1), Venice's iconic focal point for travel and tourism, and the provider of motor-free Venice's only form of public transport, the Vaporetto (water bus), on which I used to get there. I then hopped along to the Basilica di San Marco (Picture 3), unmistakably famous for its' domed exterior and golden mosaics. Taking a lift up to the top of its companion, the Campanile (literally Bell Tower in English) will give you a glimpse of The Floating City and all of its densely packed terracotta buildings. In a distinctly overcrowded food scene, it's impossible to sort the good eateries from the bad. Luckily, I came across Bacaretto Cicchetto, as I was keen to try Venice's answer to Antipasti Cicchetti (Picture 4 & 5). This consists of whatever Chef has available on the day, and mine consisted of Italian meats and cheese, baby octopus, Venetian-style sardines and creamed salted cod on polenta bases. Served with a glass of Aperol Spritz, originating from Austria Hungary's occupation of Venice in the 19th century and gradually adapted by the Italians into the drink we know today. Simply delicious. I then ventured out further along the canal towards the Laguna di Venezia, passing unmissable buildings such as the Basilica Santa Maria della Salute and the San Giorgio Maggiore. My proudest life hack of the day... no visit to Venice is complete without a trip on a gondola, granted. However I'm very budget-conscious and I found a great way to get around this while keeping with my plan of sticking to a Venetian-style itinerary... the Traghetto (Picture 6). Traghettos have around 10 seats and are used by locals to hop from one district to another, so rides are usually around 2 minutes long. They only cost €2 instead of the gondola's flat, non-negotiable €80 fee for 30 minutes. It was a great quick experience and I felt just like I'd rode a gondola As the sun was starting to set, I ventured through to the Basilica di Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari, built in a gothic style symbolic of the era and a pioneer of beauty and elegance (Picture 7). I headed out for dinner at a local restaurant for Lasagne (not a traditional Venetian dish) and made my way back to the Grand Canal for city views in the evening. The Grand Canal offers a different kind of beauty in the evening, as the city's vibrant food and drink culture shines and watches over the bustling tourism scene. Back to the airport I went, having had a great experience in Bellissima Venezia (beautiful Venice) and feeling a sudden urge to return once again. #celebrateit

#europetrip I recently returned from an unforgettable trip to Italy, and I’m still in awe of the country’s incredible beauty, history, and culture. My journey began in Rome, where I explored iconic landmarks like the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and, of course, the Vatican. The city is a perfect blend of ancient history and vibrant modern life, with every street offering something new to discover. Next, I ventured to Florence, the heart of the Renaissance. The Uffizi Gallery was a highlight, filled with masterpieces by Botticelli and Michelangelo. I also took time to admire the stunning architecture of the Duomo and enjoy the view from Ponte Vecchio. The trip also took me to the enchanting canals of Venice, where I wandered through narrow streets, rode a gondola, and watched the sun set over the Grand Canal. No trip to Italy would be complete without experiencing the Tuscan countryside, so I spent a few days in a charming villa near Siena, sampling world-class wines and local delicacies.

#cityscape Venice in November offers a quieter, more intimate experience of this iconic city. The summer crowds have dwindled, allowing visitors to explore its canals, piazzas, and historic landmarks at a leisurely pace. Misty mornings and cooler weather lend a romantic, mysterious charm to the city. November often brings the phenomenon of acqua alta (high water), which can flood parts of Venice but also creates captivating reflections in the streets and squares. Museums, churches, and local trattorias are less crowded, providing a more authentic experience. With its serene beauty and off-season appeal, Venice in November is a magical destination for travelers.

#traveldiaries There’s no better place for a romantic getaway than Venice, Italy. Glide down the Grand Canal in a traditional gondola while taking in the city’s stunning Renaissance architecture. Venice is a city of charm, with narrow alleyways, quaint bridges, and hidden piazzas waiting to be explored. Visit the iconic St. Mark’s Basilica or just spend hours wandering the picturesque streets. Venice’s magic lies in its beauty and its pace—slowing down is a must. #100WaysofTravel #VeniceGrandCanal #TravelDiaries

#Valentine's Day Destinations There are many beautiful and romantic places to visit in Venice. A place that tourists don't miss walking around and taking pictures of is the Grand Canal, which is the largest canal across Venice. There is a beautiful covered marble bridge crossing the canal. There are shops, restaurants, art, churches, and music venues nearby. No matter where you walk, there is something to see. I sat down to rest in a beautiful and peaceful church nearby and then walked along the canal. There were boats traveling back and forth on both the small and large canals. The Grand Canal is another unforgettable viewpoint in the middle of the water.

Roadtrip to Venice..🚗 we just took halfday tour around Venice and really enjoy..what a beeeeuuuteyfull town..🏞 ❤️ Venice, the capital of northern Italy’s Veneto region, is built on more than 100 small islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea.

DATE : May 6 Bonjorno! Pagi Isnin lepas kami bertolak dari Chamonix bergerak ke Italy ... Lompat2 bas dari Chamonix ke Courmeyour, Italy ... Dari Courmeyour ke Aosta & dari Aosta ke Milano ... Jejalan di Milan kejap & amik train dari Milan ke Venezia. Venice is 'city of water', 'city of bridges', 'floating city' and 'city of masks'. Well ... did Venice make it on my list of one of my most fav city in the world? Probably not! But I must say that Venice have its own charm. The city itself is beautiful ... The architecture is amazingly unique and have loads of history. Yeah ... It is a tourist town ... It is overcrowded, really expensive & constantly under renovation... But if you can look pass that you will enjoy Venice . The main attraction here is Grand Canal, St. Mark Square, gandolas? and Rialto Bridge to name a few. But for me the real gems is their outer Island - Lido, Burano, Murano AND wandering around back alleys in Venice, observing antique building & get lost! ... I consider myself quite good with directions but here the buildings looks similar and there's hundreds of bridge ... It's like walking in a maze ... You will get lost ... I mean really2 lost & it was so much fun!! But sooner or later you will know your way plus it's an island ... no matter how lost you are it's not like you can get off of it. Wandering around you will find hidden treasure of Venice, antique places, watch local live their life and play ... Observing people ,their interaction and you will try to guess another person's story ... I love doing it .. When you travel you will met different people with different walk of life ... People watching is very insightful and informative way to know them. It allows you to observe humanity in all its diversity and similarity. Anyway ... Some tips in Venice : when you first arrive and looking for your hotel pls prepare a map of your hotel location ... Wandering around in Venice is fun ... But walking clueless for hours with heavy backpack is no fun ... Every shops have a business card ask for it ... usually they got a map on that card ... That's how you know exactly where you are ... Don't eat at table outside a restaurant ... Eat inside or take away ... It's cheaper ... Don't eat at places with 20 different languages on the menu or didn't show a price at all ... You'll end up pay a fortune. Pagi ini kami bergerak ke destinasi seterusnya : Florence Ciao!!

Instead of forking out a minimum of €80 for a 25-30 minute ride on a gondola in Venice, did you know you can have the full gondola experience across the Grand Canal in Venice for just 2.5% of the cost? This is all made possible if you go to ‘Gondola Traghetto’ which is only a short walk away from the famous Rialto Bridge. You don’t need to book in advance, just join a relatively small queue of people (even in the summer), pay €2 and hop on the gondola. There are a couple of drawbacks to this, one being you’ll be sharing the gondola with a number of strangers rather than renting a private gondola for your party. Secondly the gondola trip only lasts roughly 3 minutes as you simply cross the canal rather than travel along it. If neither of these things put you off then this is definitely a bargain and a must do on your trip to one of the most magical cities in Europe.

Venice is one of Italy’s most picturesque cities. Beautiful floating palaces of stone surrounded by an ancient network of canals. Venice is one of the most popular Italian cities for tourists, even with all the other beautiful & historic places there are in Italy. There are basically no roads, transportation is accomplished via boats on a confusing network of canals. It’s truly unlike anything I’ve ever experienced before! Here, we explored Saint Mark’s Square. Also called Piazza San Marco, it is Venice’s main public square, basically the social heart of the city. There are a bunch of famous landmarks here, like the Clock Tower, St. Mark’s Basilica. Then, the The Grand Canal, which is the most important channel running through the city. Many of these buildings can only be accessed by boat. We also visited the St. Mark's Basilica, the most famous of Venice’s churches and the cathedral of the Patriarchate of Venice. As a lavish and much-beloved symbol of Venetian history, it’s totally worth a stop. Overall, Venice is worth visiting. Venice is an enchanting city that casts visitors under an intoxicating spell. It’s dreamy and romantic, with an undercurrent of mystery and drama. Venice is such a special place to the point that it almost doesn’t feel real. There's so much to see, and it’s so perfect. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers

#bucketlistreboot there are a lot of major tourist spots along the grand canal, we enjoyed ourselves spending time here. there are lots of amazing moments when the Sun flashes on the canal, and it was a great experience when we walked on the bridges to see the boats and gon gondola pass by. It is also a good way to see Venice with the amazing buildings you cannot visit there without seeing the Grand Canal! There’s so much to see over there, and we had a wine and food, walking tour and walked around market, this is just an amazing city ❤️❤️

The Gondole Ride in Italy is absolutely iconic and if it happens to be your first time in Italy or specifically Venice it is irreplaceable. The ride through the Grand Canal is incredibly scenic and tranquil. You will see many other boats passing by and you will be transported through different parts of Venice that a tourist would love to see including the older historic buildings and more. I personally enjoyed our tour guide who was giving us a history lesson as we were looking in awe on the water. It is worth it and once again if you happen to be in Venice make sure that this particular thing you do. You won’t forget the Gondole Ride. #italy #europe #passionpassport #venice #gondole

Venice is a beautiful island and worth to visit at least one time in life. From the main island, we can vist three nearby islands too. It takes about three days to explore the whole Venice #summervacation

The famous Grand Canal in Venice, Italy is one of the most picturesque spots in the city. Traditional poled gondolas dot the waterway makng for a unique and unforgettable experience for all visiting tourists.

When thinking of Venice I think of the velvet-padded gondolas. It is an obvious and cliché choice of experiencing Venice. The ride through the winding Grand Canal is elegant, slow, with unusual silence permitted by the absence of cars and beautiful views of pastel old buildings with entrances on the canal's side. Same (or even better) is if you're staying in an apartment with a balcony above the canal with singing gondoliers paddling below you every few minutes. Oh, la dolce vita.

Made of velvet-padded gondolas, scenic bridges & canals, beautiful balconies with matching flowers, architectural masterpieces of floating palaces, cicchetti & bellini gatherings... Any girl will begun to feel La ‚Dolce Vita‘ the moment you arrive to Venice. The most romantic city in the world is not to be missed and definitely must be experienced with your soulmate.

Grand Canal is the biggest part of all the canals in Venice. It is also where the big boats are, those who travel further than just in the Venice city itself. You can also take gondola ride here #happynewyear #venicetrip #happynewyear

Venice grand canal taguig #happynewyear

Grand Canal The Grand Canal can be said to be the main street of Venice. Water buses and gondolas pass by, and beautiful historical architecture lines both banks.

🇮🇹The name "Venice" comes from the ancient Venetian people who lived in the area in the tenth century BC. The city was historically the capital of the Republic of Venice. At that time, the city was considered the first truly international financial center, but it began to decline in the 15th century. The city of Venice is located on the shallows of the Venetian Lagoon, divided by an inverted S-shaped canal. It consists of 118 small islands connected by 177 waterways and 401 bridges. They are connected by boats and vehicles are not allowed to enter. Therefore, it has many beautiful names such as "Water City", "Bridge City" and "City of Masks". The water in Venice has endowed the city with endless tenderness and romance, making it radiate an indescribable dreamy beauty. Every drop of water seems to carry the memory of history, telling the legendary story of the city. Take a "water taxi" to wander along the rippling Grand Canal and start a rhythmic journey in the water kingdom (unfortunately, it's cold in winter, so the unique gondola will have to be left for next time)! : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Another representative is the "Doge's Palace" in St. Mark's Square: it used to be the highest administrative body and court of the Republic of Venice from the 8th to the 18th century, and it was also the residence of the Doge of Venice; the current building was mainly built between 1309 and 1424. The building is now open as a museum together with the Bridge of Sighs and the prison. Another Baroque marble palace by the canal, Ca' Pesaro, now houses the Venice Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Oriental Art. Friends who love collecting should not miss the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, which was bought by American celebrity Peggy Guggenheim in 1948 as her private residence. Her ashes were also buried here after her death. The building and her collection were eventually donated to the Guggenheim Foundation to establish an art museum with an area of ​​4,000 square meters. The exhibits in the museum include Cubism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism works. Built in 1509 on the Grand Canal, the magnificent "Windramine Palace" is a shining example of Renaissance architecture. It was once the residence of nobility and royal families. One of its most famous residents was composer Richard Wagner, who died here in 1883. In order to commemorate Richard Wagner, the Wagner Museum was opened here in 1995, and there is also a Wagner-themed restaurant. The building overlooks the Grand Canal and is very eye-catching with a huge red sign. When you turn back at the scenic pointed corner between the entrance of the Grand Canal and the San Marco Harbor in the lagoon, you will see the Basilica of Santa Maria del Salvatore, one of the most photogenic churches in Italy for its gorgeous and decorative unique appearance and geographical location. The church was completed in 1687 and is a masterpiece of Venetian Baroque architecture. The next bridge is of course the century-old bridge on the canal: the Rialto Bridge is the oldest of the four bridges across the Grand Canal. It was built in 1591 in the Renaissance style and is also known as the "White Elephant". Shakespeare's work "The Merchant of Venice" was written based on this bridge. It has been the most popular place in Venice since ancient times. There are shops and stalls on both sides of the bridge, and it is also a major tourist attraction in Venice. Standing in the middle of the bridge is a great angle to take pictures of the Grand Canal, and the best place to view the bridge is on a boat touring the canal. The second bridge on the canal, the Academy Bridge, was completed in 1854. It was originally a steel structure bridge. After being damaged, it was rebuilt into a wooden bridge in 1930. It was rebuilt again in 1985 due to structural instability and has remained in this condition ever since. However, the most popular bridge in Venice is not on the Grand Canal, but the "Bridge of Sighs" across the Palace River. It was named after the British poet and "the master of romantic literature" Lord Byron; the bridge was completed in 1600 and is of early Baroque style. The closed arch bridge is shaped like a house, and the upper dome is covered and tightly closed. There are only two small windows on the stone beam on the canal side. It connects the interrogation room of the Ducal Palace in Venice and the old prison. When death row prisoners pass this bridge, they sigh for the end of their lives. There is a local legend: a kiss under the Bridge of Sighs will seal the relationship for life; I personally feel that a bridge with such a heavy historical background may find it difficult to carry such a beautiful vision. There are two important tourist islands outside the main island of Venice. Starting from the F.te Nove "D" pier near St. Mark's Square, take a 10-minute boat ride to Murano "Glass Island", and then take a 35-minute boat ride from Glass Island to Burano "Color Island"; Murano is famous for making colorful glassware, especially brushed thermoplastics. Going to the Murano Glass Factory to watch the glass masters blow glass products on the spot is one of the essential projects for tourists visiting Venice for the first time. There is a Murano Glass Museum in Piazza Giusti. Burano was originally a small fishing village. Although it later became famous for its handmade lace textile industry, the reason why tourists must visit the island and check in is that it is named "Color Island" because of the colorful houses closely connected on both sides of the water. As for why the houses are painted in colors, the more acceptable inference is that it is to allow fishermen who go out to sea to distinguish their own houses when they return through the thick fog. Because it is the winter off-season for tourism, most shops on the two islands are closed. So when we return from the canal tour, we head directly to the Colorful Island. The bright sunshine and blue sky and white clouds complement each other. The colorful houses and the bright boats moored on the river are like a beautiful painting. With few tourists, you can fully experience this rare tranquility and beauty. The last stop is the landmark of Venice, "Piazza San Marco": it was first built in the 9th century and has always been the city's political, religious and festival center. It is also the most popular tourist attraction. The square is surrounded by exquisite Renaissance buildings, including the Doge's Palace, St. Mark's Basilica, St. Mark's Bell Tower, the old and new executive residence buildings, the Napoleon Wing connecting the two buildings, and the St. Mark's Library. The square is surrounded by the Grand Canal of Venice and forms a quadrilateral. French Emperor Napoleon once praised it as "the most beautiful living room in Europe." If you come here when the sea water is high tide and floods the square, you can sit in the cafe or bar in the arcade of the square, sip tea while listening to the live band playing wonderful music, or jump into the water barefoot and dance to the music. It is extremely romantic! Café Florian, also known as Café de Flore, is one of the oldest coffee houses in 🇮🇹. It opened in 1720 and has not only received Venetian nobles, ambassadors, merchants, writers and artists, but also citizens of Venice. As the only coffee house that allowed women to visit at that time, many famous people have sought their partners here. In the mid-18th century, Café de Flore expanded to four rooms, including the Hall of Fame, which has portraits of ten Venetian celebrities, including Marco Polo and Titian. In 2015, Café de Flore entered Asia, with its first store in Suzhou, 🇨🇳. Sitting here and slowly sipping cappuccino and tiramisu, the trip to Venice came to a sweet end.

It is said that there are more than 400 bridges in Venice, among which the most famous are the Bridge of Sighs, Rialto Bridge, Barefoot Bridge, Liberty Bridge, Three-arch Bridge, Fighting Bridge, Tait Bridge, Bridge without Railings, Triple Bridge, and Lengo Bridge. These bridges are made of stone, wood, iron, etc., and most of them are single-arch bridges. Some bridges connect the main roads on both sides, while others extend into the halls of the water town. It is no exaggeration to say that if you walk through the streets and alleys of Venice, you are actually walking on bridges.

#ancienttownvibes Venice is an ancient city that dates way back to the 5th Century AD. It is located in the Veneto region of northeastern Italy. It was built by merchants to protect themselves from raids after the fall of the Roman Empire. And eventually became a major maritime port in the 10th Century. We had the pleasure of visiting this unique city during our trip to Northern Italy. And I must say, we were blown away. It’s no other city like Venice. The architecture is stunning with lots of history behind them. It is a little touristy but that is expected as everyone wants to visit, however take some time to wander along the quiet canals and bridges where you’ll find no one. The eeriness and spookiness transported us back to the ancient world and we had a small glimpse of what it would feel like to live there. I highly reccomend veering off the main tourist sights and just get lost in the wonder of this ancient city. It felt otherworldly. You have got to visit at least once in your life.
