This is the best museum to appreciate Venetian Renaissance art. There are many works by Bellini, Giorgione, Titian, Tintoretto, etc. It is a space where you can appreciate it in a quiet and in-depth way.

To go to this church, we took the public ferry on the canal. There was a disembarkation point at the door of the church. After visiting the church, you can wait for the next boat to visit other islands.

There is a sightseeing bridge on the Grand Canal. It has a large passenger flow every day. The scenery of this bridge is also very beautiful. There are many commercial facilities on both sides of the bridge. The bridge is very high and many ships can pass through it.

Most of the buildings and bridges in Venice's ancient Watertown are very elegant. Both the Rialto Bridge and others are the result of single arch with marble decoration. This bridge, however, adds a different feeling to the old and wide canal with modern glass, which brings different flavors to the whole old city. Although the color of his bridge is as close as possible to the surrounding environment.
