A classic tour of Venice, exploring romance and history at St. Mark's Square and the Bridge of Sighs!

#Spring0yenTrip When it comes to sightseeing in Venice, you can't miss "St. Mark's Square" and "Bridge of Sighs"! St. Mark's Square is a majestic space known as "the most beautiful square in the world," and is packed with famous sights such as the Doge's Palace, St. Mark's Basilica, and Cafe Florian. During the day, the buildings sparkle in the sunlight, and at night, the lights create a fantastic atmosphere. The "Bridge of Sighs," located very close by, is a pure white bridge that connects the Doge's Palace to the prison across the canal. It has a sad origin, as it was said that prisoners "sighed" at the beautiful view they saw for the last time. But now it is also popular as a romantic spot for lovers! 📍Basic information (check the tourist website for the latest information) ✴︎Location: Piazza San Marco & Ponte dei Sospiri (Venice main island) ✴︎Access: Take a water bus from Venice Santa Lucia Station for about 20 minutes and disembark at "San Zaccaria" ✴︎Price: Free to view the exterior of the square and bridge / There is an admission fee to cross the bridge from inside the Doge's Palace (about 30 euros) ✴︎Opening hours: The square is open all day / The palace is open from 9:00 to 18:00 (subject to seasonal changes) Both are the most classic spots where you can enjoy the "Venice" scenery! You're sure to have a dramatic time looking up at the bridge through the gondola and listening to music in the square. Whether you're a first-time visitor to Venice or a repeat visitor, start your trip here!
