Synopsis

This guidebook reveals Venice in all its glory. From San Marco and the Rialto markets to tranquil San Francesco del Deserto, every corner of the city is covered in full cultural and historical detail. As well as the monuments and paintings, there are details of the practicalities of Venetian life. The guide explains how to find the best bars and restaurants, how to negotiate the transport system, how to get into the swing of the city's festivals and how to escape the crowds. It also covers the sights outside Venice, ranging from the cities of Padua and Verona to the vineyards of the Dolomite foothills.
