Angelina Jolie lived in Venice for several months while shooting ‘The Tourist’. In order to have a ‘little privacy’, she rented the entire Palazzo Mocenigo where she stayed with her children and Brad Pitt. Ah…those were the days! This year, the month of March offers Venice a relatively peaceful time. Although the influx of tourists never completely stops, the calendar at this time of year means that there is a long break between the festivities of Carnival (which ended on 28 February) and the Easter celebrations, which fall in April in this year. This could be a good time to enjoy a less crowded Venice, enhanced by longer days and a milder climate. In fact, if everything goes according to plan and the weather is on your side, you will find yourself enjoying a city that is so beautiful that you’ll have the impression of being permanently on a film set. You can limit yourself to enjoying the marvels that nature and onethousand-five-hundred years of history have put together for you or, you can opt for a more organized itinerary and have fun discovering all the views, squares, streets and canals that have been used as movie locations. If you choose the latter, we have already done some of the work for you. This month’s Focus offers an overview of the feature films shot in these places. Test your knowledge and have fun seeing how many titles you remember! As spring approaches, sailing to the islands becomes an even greater pleasure. Don’t miss a visit to Murano, Burano and Torcello, three destinations associated with Venetian craftsmanship: glass, lace and an absolutely fabulous gastronomic experience await you only 30-minutes away by vaporetto. Finally, keep an eye out for unplanned happenings (also listed on our website). As with most Italian cities, Venice loves organizing spur-of-themoment festivities to welcome spring.

The interiors are filled with numerous treasures. PHOTO © DANIMISRA PALAZZO DUCALE A masterpiece of Gothic art and a repository of innumerable art treasures, it features a number of different and intricate architectural and ornamental details, dating from the 9th century. Formerly the residence and government centre of the Doges, it is superbly decorated by artists like Titian, Tiepolo and Tintoretto. Canal Grande Piazza San Marco with the Basilica and the Tower EDITOR'S TIP Palazzo Ducale BASILICA DI SAN MARCO This is the most important Catholic church in the city, and one of the most important monuments in Italy. The original church dates back to before the year 1000; inside, a triumphant array of domes and transepts, mosaics and gold, marble and numerous other treasures. PONTE DI RIALTO This is the oldest and most beautiful of the four bridges crossing the Grand Canal. Originally built during medieval times as a pontoon bridge at the canal’s narrowest point to facilitate access to the popular Rialto market, it is still a hub of commerce and is 4 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 lined on both sides by shops. It includes as many as 120 steps. CANAL GRANDE Although it is known as ‘the most beautiful street in the world’, the Canal Grande is the main waterway of Venice. Lined on both sides by an uninterrupted series of palaces, churches, hotels and other public buildings, it offers a journey back into history, evoking the pomp and splendor of the ancient Serenissima. SCALA CONTARINI DEL BOVOLO The external ‘bovolo’ (snail-shell) stairwell of Palazzo Contarini - an exquisite, late Gothic building - is enclosed in a cylinder perforated like lace. The architectural beauty of the stairwell, combined with the view that can be enjoyed on reaching the top, is well worth a visit. TEATRO LA FENICE Twice destroyed by fire and twice restored to its former splendour (the last time was between 1996 and 2003), for centuries La Fenice theatre has been Venice's principal stage for world-class opera, music, theater, and ballet.

This unique 450 sq.m space, designed by Patricia Urquiola, is housed inside Vicenza’s Basilica Palladiana, which recently inaugurated its second exhibition edition (2017-2018). An artistic project curated by 10 new international curators which highlights the culture of the area and aims to promote the fabric of jewelry production that has made Vicenza the ‘capital of jewelry’.

Boasting more than thirty years of performance, the company has gained international acclaim and has become one of the best-loved groups on the old continent. A leader of contemporary and post-modern dance, its creations combine the expressiveness of the body in combination with narrative elements and dramatic cues, engaging the emotions of the audience and captivating them with these personal interpretations.

Little known outside her native Denmark, Kern-Larsen, a prominent Danish surrealist artist, whom Peggy Guggenheim met in Paris in 1937, was invited by Peggy the following year to exhibit her paintings at a one-woman exhibition at the London-based ‘Guggenheim Jeune’ gallery, a show that launched Peggy’s career as a patron of Surrealist art. This intimate exhibition inaugurates the two new ‘Project Rooms’; spaces designed to host special projects, with the aim of analyzing the work of 20th century artists or specific themes connected to the Peggy Guggenheim collection. Until 26 June. Free presentations of the exhibition daily (3pm). Rita Kernn-Larsen. Surrealist Paintings Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Project Rooms.

Central Persia, Isfahan? 16th century (Galleria Moshe Tabibnia) w w w. w heretravel er. com 11 WHERE NOW | FOCUS Venice movie map OLD-WORLD ELEGANCE With its exquisite stuccoes and tables overlooking St. Mark’s Square, Venice’s historic Caffé Florian has appeared in numerous films, including 'The Talented Mr. Ripley' (in the opening page) and 'Summertime' (seen here on the left). Established in 1720, a stopover at Florian is an absolute must, to rediscover the authentic mood of 18th century Venice. While Venice holds even those visiting it for the hundredth time in thrall, it’s no surprise that countless directors and filmmakers also fell under the spell of the city. In fact, several of its most breathtaking, mysterious views have taken centre stage in more than 700 feature films. This one-of-a-kind movie map will help you discover, and identify, those places most frequently captured and portrayed in the history of filmmaking. B Y S I M O N A P. K . D A V I D D I After skirting the Grand Canal and entering Sestiere Dorsoduro, we come to Ca’ Rezzonico, whose rooms served as a backdrop for several scenes featured in Moonraker (1979) starring Roger Moore as James Bond. Just a little further on, another favourite Hollywood location is Campo San Barnaba, home to the church of the same name. The famous scene from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), in which Harrison Ford climbs out of a manhole in the middle of the ‘campo’, startling customers seated at the tables of a nearby bar, was shot here. The church, which also appears in the film, was used as a location housing an imaginary library. Campo San Barnaba is also the home of the shop owned by the antique dealer with whom Katherine Hepburn fell in love in Summertime (1955). And, Rio San Barnaba was also the place where this leading lady fell into the water. Hepburn was forced to repeat the scene of her fall three times. The same setting, with a totally different atmosphere, was used for the scenes featuring the first boat chase through the canals in The Italian Job (2003): due to the high speeds at which the boats flew through the canals, the producers were forced to ask the lagoon authorities for a series of special permits to shoot the scenes. 12 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 It’s past one o’clock and you’re starting to feel hungry. After a short walk, you’ll reach the famous Antica Locanda Montin, in Fondamenta Borgo 1147, where the lunch scene of one of the greatest classics of all times, The Anonymous Venetian (1970), starring Florinda Bolkan and Tony Musante, was filmed. On walking back towards the Grand Canal, you’ll find another Venetian landmark that has appeared in several films. This is the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute: in Zelig (1983) it acts as the backdrop for the interview conducted by social commentator Susan Sontag – who plays herself – regarding the mysterious identity of its main character, the satirical Woody Allen. In Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001), the Basilica is the church where the ‘Illuminati’ meet, and it can be seen behind the shoulders of Ripley (Matt Demon) in The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) during his dialogue with Dickie’s father (the scene was filmed at the Westin Europa & Regina). It also appears in The Tourist, when Angelina Jolie is seen boarding a water taxi on her way to the Venice Biennale…however, it’s a shame that, in the film, the church is shown on the left of the landing stage meaning that instead of heading towards the Arsenale, the headquarters of the event, the actress is actually going in the opposite direction! ST. MARK’S SQUARE: A DIRECTOR’S DREAM The opposite bank of the Grand Canal can be reached from the Basilica via a comfortable gondola-ferry. This gondola is larger than the standard type and is designed to carry 15 people at a time (at exorbitant prices). The docking station of the Grand Canal, located almost directly in front of Campo Santa Maria del Giglio, is home to the Hotel Gritti, immortalized by Woody Allen in Everyone Says I Love you. The interior of La Fenice Opera House, which is just steps from the Hotel Gritti, was used to shoot parts of Luchino Visconti’s Senso (1954). In fact when a fire destroyed the opera house in 1996, enlarged frames from this film sequence actually helped restorers to reconstruct its original plans. Just a little further on, you’ll find palazzo Contarini del Bovolo, renowned for its picturesque, 16th century Byzantine staircase. Legend has it that this was the home of Desdemona, but in his 1952 version of Othello, Orson Welles portrays it as Brabantio’s house in Cyprus. We have now reached the heart of Venice, St. Mark’s Square. Photogenic, scenic and stunningly beautiful, w w w. w heretravel er. com 13 PHOTO BY DELFINO SISTO LEGNANI AND MARCO CAPPELLETTI © DFS GROUP.JPG C anals, ‘campielli’, alleys, neighbourhoods and gondolas, plus domes, exquisite mullioned windows, scenic bridges and majestic bell towers. There is no view of the lagoon city that has not appeared, at least once, in a motion picture. Each portrayal has always been unique: whether immortalized in romantic, melancholic, mysterious settings or acting as a backdrop to love stories or thrilling chases. Our itinerary starts from the main ‘gateway’ to Venice, the Santa Lucia railway station, where Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp met in The Tourist (2010), and where in Venice, the Moon and You (1958), unlikely gondolier, Alberto Sordi buttonholed foreign tourists. After crossing the Ponte degli Scalzi and heading south, we reach the Scuola Grande di San Rocco, where Woody Allen attempted to seduce the beautiful Julia Roberts in Everyone Says I Love you (1996). The Scuola Grande’s sumptuous Sala del Capitolo is featured once again in Lasse Hallström’s Casanova, where it is used for a ball organized by the Doge. WHERE NOW | FOCUS the square has appeared in numerous films and film sequences that have gone down in movie history: from the scene in which Sean Connery as 007, throws a tape into the waters of the canal in the final scene of From Russia with Love (1963), to another 007, Roger Moore, who, in Moonraker, is seen hurtling past St. Mark’s Square, while escaping his pursuers on a super motorized gondola that conveniently converts into a speedboat. An interesting fact: during the shooting of the landing sequence, Roger Moore fell into the water five times! In Casino Royale (2006), the hotel, inhabited by James Bond alias Daniel Craig, boasts a magnificent view over St. Mark’s Square (but don’t try looking for this hotel, 14 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 because it doesn’t exist). In Nosferatu in Venice (1988), Klaus Kinski is seen crossing the mist shrouded square while, in Casanova, the square is magically restored to its original 18th century splendour with horses and carriages, five-hundred extras were hired to make the setting more lifelike. Even the final scene of The Talented Mr. Ripley was shot in this area, at the tables of Caffé Florian, one of the oldest cafés in Italy. Lying next to the square, and spanned by the Bridge of Sighs, is Rio Canonica, which made a recent appearance in Ron Howard’s Inferno (2016). In the film, the lead, Tom Hanks, is seen crossing the canal on a ‘Mototopo’, a typical lagoon craft. THE GRAND CANAL Now let’s head towards the Arsenale in Sestiere Castello. In Senso, this building, which was formerly one of the largest factories in Europe during the pre-industrial era, becomes the barracks where the countess goes in search of her lover while, in The Tourist, it is used as the headquarters of Interpol. After a pleasant stroll amidst ‘campi’ and ‘campielli’, we come to the beautiful church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli. Used by Orson Welles as a setting for the marriage between Desdemona and Othello, this church is decorated with polychrome marble which, according to legend, was stolen from the building site during the construction of St. Mark’s Basilica. Now we are nearly at the Rialto Bridge. However, before crossing it, if you look at the bank lying just to the left of it, set between Palazzetto Dolfin and Palazzo Remer, you will recognize the palazzo that collapsed into the Grand Canal in Casino Royale. Obviously the building that collapsed was only a digital artifact! Lying beyond the bridge is the Rialto fish market where, in The Tourist, in order to escape from his pursuers, Johnny Depp leaps down from the roofs above the fish market onto the awning of one of the stalls (an interesting fact: these scenes were shot on Monday, when the market is closed). While looking over the Grand Canal, we are reminded of numerous scenes from famous films. These include 007’s improbable crossing on a sail boat in Casino Royale – during the shoot, the crew were forced to dismantle the mast several times in order to allow it to pass under the bridges – Nikita (1990), Luc Besson’s masterpiece, in which the young spy/assassin travels around Venice in a motorboat with her boyfriend, wearing a straw gondolier’s hat and carrying a model of a gondola, the final regatta in Casanova and several scenes from Inferno and The Merchant of Venice (2004). During the shooting of the latter, both the Rialto Bridge and the Canal were closed to the public for a few hours. Several other locations in Sestiere Cannaregio are also worth a visit: the Ca’ D’Oro, whose rooms were used to shoot scenes from Romeo and Juliet (1954), the Scuola Grande of Santa Maria della Misericordia, where the dance POSTCARDS FROM THE LAGOON On the left, a picturesque view of the Grand Canal, one of the ‘sets’ best-loved by directors and immortalized – among other places- in several scenes from 'The Tourist' (starring Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp) and 'Casino Royale' (featuring Daniel Craig). Above, the sumptuous Sala degli Stucchi of the iconic, Lido-based Hotel Excelsior. This was one of the locations chosen to film scenes from 'Once Upon a Time in America' (starring Robert De Niro and Elizabeth McGovern). w w w. w heretravel er. com 15 WHERE NOW | FOCUS HISTORIC LOCATIONS On the page at the side, a recent picture of the Antica Locanda Montin (Fondamenta Borgo 1147) and one showing what it looked like in 1970, during the filming of 'The Anonymous Venetian', starring Florinda Bolkan and Tony Musante (below, the façade of the Casa dei Tre Oci). On this page: above, the historic and elegant Hotel Des Bains, on the Lido where, in 1911, Thomas Mann set his short novel titled 'Death in Venice', and also the place where, in 1971, Luchino Visconti shot the screen version of the book (on the left). HUGO PRATT’S VENICE An eclectic artist but, above all, the creator of Corto Maltese, a ‘graphic novel’, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, Hugo Pratt wrote: “There are three magical and hidden places in Venice: one is in Calle dell'Amor degli Amici, one is near the Ponte delle Maravegie and the other is in Calle dei Marrani, near San Geremia in the Old Ghetto. When Venetians feel that they can no longer endure the establishment, they go to these secret places where, on opening the back doors to these courtyards, they wander off into beautiful spaces, and other stories..." Despite their grandiose names, these three places really 16 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 exist, and you only need to stray slightly from popular tourist itineraries to find them: Calle Amor dei Amici is in Sestiere San Polo; the tiny Bridge of Marvels is in Dorsoduro and the Calle dei Marrani is actually the Salizada Santa Giustina in Sestiere Castello. The tavern that appears in Corto’s stories is the Trattoria da Scarso in the little square of Malamocco, while Pratt chose Titian’s home in Cannaregio, in Corte del Tiziano, as Corto’s domicile. Finally, one of Pratt’s favourite haunts in Venice was Caffé Florian, whose celebrated Corto Maltese cocktail is dedicated to him. party scene in The Tourist was set, and the campo del Ghetto Novo, where Alida Valli and Farley Granger fell in love in Senso. THE ISLANDS AND THE LIDO Moving onto the islands, we find the former Benedictine monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore. Dating back to the 10th century, but restyled by Palladio in the 16th century, it was depicted as Portia’s palace in The Merchant of Venice (2004). Villa F on the Island of Giudecca, appears in The Tourist, while the nearby Casa dei Tre Oci (its name refers to the three large windows on its facade) was used as Valeria’s (Florinda Bolkan) house in The Anonymous Venetian. On reaching the Lido, the Hotel Des Bains, located on the Lungomare Marconi is worth a mention. It was here in 1911, that Thomas Mann set his novel titled Death in Venice, and also here in 1971 that Luchino Visconti shot the screen version of the book. An interesting fact: the director brought in six trucks loaded with object d’art and Art Noveau furniture to reproduce the hotel’s fin de siecle splendour. This elegant hotel also ‘played’ the Shepeard Hotel in Cairo in The English Patient (1996), while nearby the equally luxurious Excelsior – and more specifically its sumptuous Sala degli Stucchi – was the Long Island restaurant where Robert De Niro reserved a table for his date with Elizabeth McGovern in Once Upon a Time in America (1984). Looking for the perfect shoot? Romena Brugnerotto Tourist Advisor www.rominvenice.com Visitors to Venice always bring a camera with them hoping to capture the essence of the city. This is not always easy and weather is a common concern for all photographers. There are days in which the sky is so clear that you can see the mountains lying behind Venice. Seize the moment and climb to the top of the Bell Tower of San Giorgio, where you’ll have a bird’s-eye view over the city. A new favourite aerial observation point, especially at sunset, is the highly soughtafter terrace of T Fondaco dei Tedeschi, Venice’s lavish, high-end shopping centre (please note that weekends can get crowded and you might have to queue). Are you interested in capturing real life scenes rather than monuments? In the mornings, head to the Rialto Fish Market, where the locals and restaurant owners purchase fresh fish. However, remember that markets are above all places of business, so you can understand how vendors feel when a photographer ‘hogs’ the space in front of their stall waiting for the ‘perfect’ image. We therefore suggest that you work quickly, without getting in the way of the business people. While in the area, you can stop in at one of the nearby bars; try an aperitivo or a ‘cicchetto’ at Lino Fritto. Where ‘real life’ scenes are concerned, make sure to snap a few photos of Venice’s Aperitivo hour, the time when Venetians relax, socialize and prepare their palates and stomachs for dinner. Take a tour of the areas around Campo Santa Margherita or the Fondamenta della Misericoria, where you can even drink a Spritz, the Venetian aperitivo par excellence, on a boat. Taking nighttime photographs of the city can also be a unique experience. Don your walking shoes and set out from the Zattere because the Giudecca offers numerous interesting views, when lit up. What happens when it’s foggy, a fairly usual occurrence in Venice? Dismal days shouldn’t stop you from capturing some amazing shots of the city’s churches and ‘palazzi’. Stand on one of the city’s many bridges, the bridge of the Accademia is a good option, and find the right light to work with. Finally, if you’re a fan of winter seascapes, head to the beaches of either Alberoni or Pellestrina, which still boast traces of their original wild nature. w w w. w heretravel er. com 17 WHERE NOW | SHOPPING GIFT GUIDE Whether you choose an accessory or a fragrance for him or for her, a jewel or some local items, you will certainly be spoilt for choice in the magic of Venice.

The work is extremely exacting, with each woman specializing in a single stitch. Since there are seven stitches in total, each piece is passed from woman to woman to finish. Groups of women work diligently for days to produce items, whether large or small, of matchless beauty: trims for dresses, accessories, tablecloths, gloves, umbrellas and masks, all made from this delicate, white lace, crafted with a painstaking attention to detail that has lasted for centuries. For example, though it can take up to five months to make a rectangular tablecloth for 12 people, the island’s lace makers are now equipped to deliver your item of choice to anywhere in the world. (Please note: since an authentic, handcrafted item takes hours of work, you need to be cautious if the price seems too low. The risk that the lace is not handmade and not even Venetian is now a sad reality). While on the island, make sure to visit the Museum of Lace-Making to understand why something so exquisite should not become extinct (Burano, Piazza Baldassarre Galuppi, 187). In addition to Murano and Torcello, this island on the Venetian Lagoon should not be missed. Loved (and widely photographed) by tourists, it is famous for its colourful houses, butter biscuits and above all, its handcrafted lace. By Stefano Traine Zilli POCKET BURANO You can also take the houses of Burano home as a souvenir. On the island you can find a number of artisans specializing in the reproduction of brightly coloured, miniature districts. However, the noblest craft of all is the lace-making. The lace made here is truly an example of an ancient art! 20 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 A little less famous than its twin, Murano - the island of glass, with which it is often confused, due to the similar names (only the first letter changes), lace, in no way inferior to its sibling’s blown glass, has made tiny Burano famous. With a population of only three thousand inhabitants, its colourful houses make it is one of the most picturesque places on earth. THE HOUSES Thank heavens for smartphones! The idea of arriving on Burano and realizing that you’ve forgotten your camera could be a catastrophe. The island’s row of houses, whose facades boast all the colours of the rainbow, are truly spectacular! However, the origin of this tradition of painting the houses in bright colours was not only for aesthetic reasons. Legend has it that its fishermen, often confused by frequent banks of fog (and, truth be told, by the amount of liqueur consumed to keep them warm…), devised a chromatic code that would help them identify their own landing piers more easily after a long day’s fishing. Each colour corresponded to a family, to their house and to their address. BURANO LACE Burano’s brightly-coloured houses are not the only thing worth admiring. BISCUITS AND OTHER SWEET TREATS Butter biscuits known as Buranelli (either ring or S-shaped), are famous on the island and you will be offered them wherever you go. However, this is not the only specialty that you’ll find. The island has a long-standing gastronomic tradition linked, above all, to fresh fish. Here is our pick, among the many, of several historic eateries. Da Romano (famed for its ‘risotto di Gò’); Da Ruggero al Gatto Nero (all the pastas and desserts are made in-house, and the fish is so fresh and delicious that even Jamie Oliver has recommended Al Gatto Nero on his television show); and finally Ai Pescatori e Dal Vecio Pipa. Bon Appetit! HOW TO REACH BURANO One Vaporetto line runs from Venice to Burano: the number 12. The journey lasts for approximately one hour after embarking at the Fondamente Nove stop (the Vaporetto runs at 10 minutes past and 20 minutes to the hour). If you’re not in a hurry, the Venetians recommend another alternative: you can take the 14 line from San Zaccaria (the Pietà stop), which stops at the Lido. It’s a good opportunity to take a look at the venue where the Film Festival is held, and admire the works by MOSE, the huge hydraulic engineering project completed to protect the Lagoon. w w w. w heretravel er. com 21 SHOPPING H E O W M FOR MORE LISTINGS VISIT WWW.WHERE-VENICE.COM R .C E T R R A V E L E Guidelines ACCESSORIES The This directory, grouped by category, is a list of establishments recommended by the editors of Where Magazine and includes regular advertisers.

Off Map Glassmaking had already become an integral part of life in the Venetian lagoon in the 7th century B.C. Furthermore, after the year 1000 A.D. its production had become so important that it was protected by specific laws: the furnaces used to create the molten glass were a constant fire hazard in the narrow streets of Venice. As a consequence, all the glass workshops were moved to Murano where they are still located today. It was here that eyeglasses were invented in the 13th century and here that, in 1369, mirrors began to be produced. It was also here that, in 1450, Angelo Barovier invented crystal. Glass was a rare commodity throughout the Renaissance: it was only in 1827 that production on an industrial level began. At that point, blown glass or glass produced by lampworking became a highly prized material used for artistic purposes, achieving its height of splendor during the Art Nouveau period.

As a result of this experience, during the mid-20th century, real masters of the art began to emerge in Murano including Signoretto, Ballarin, Zanetti and Vidal. Their works are highly coveted objects, true collectors’ items which are often displayed at museums. Murano has numerous glass factories, several of which boast an age-old history (i.e. Barovier&Toso) or a list of particularly prestigious collaborations (i.e. Venini). Crafting authentic Murano glass is no easy task and does not come cheap. Large objects require hours of work, so don’t expect to take your custom-made lamp home on the same day. Furthermore, each piece is unique meaning that small imperfections are an integral part of the value of the object.

Head to the Castello district, located just steps from the Biennale’s Giardini venue. It’s impossible not to notice a beautiful Liberty-style steel and glass structure: the Serra dei Giardini. By Stefania Vida T he Serra dei Giardini offers a range of options, from a bucolic lunch surrounded by greenery to a trendy aperitivo. At the Caffè La Serra, you can sample snacks, aperitivi, tisanes, smoothies and other organic products. This picturesque location doubles as a meeting space and a venue hosting cultural events, and deserves to be mentioned on account of its historical background. An interesting fact: the address of the ‘Serra’ is Viale Giuseppe Garibaldi, the only ‘road’ among Venice’s myriad ‘calli’! Originally known as ‘Serra Margherita’, Castello’s Serra dei Giardini was built in 1894 with the aim of creating an ‘iron and glass 34 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 tepidarium’ to house the palm trees and other decorative plants used for the International Art Exhibition. Later on, for more than one hundred years, the ‘Serra’ represented a workplace for generations of gardeners whose secrets were handed down from father to son. In Winter, the premises of the Serra were used to house those plants that were particularly sensitive to the cold weather, but also for the cultivation of many others, needed for the creation of the municipal flowerbeds of the Lido and Venice, and to decorate the rooms of aristocratic Venetian dwellings during meetings, receptions and events. La Serra dei Giardini is now an interesting meeting place and pleasant area where visitors can relax and read books and magazines about gardening and nature. The ‘Serra’ includes a permanent display of rare plant species, an educational space for schools, adults and families, and a cultural centre for gardening enthusiasts. The venue also sells plants and gardening equipment. >> Serra dei Giardini Viale Giuseppe Garibaldi, 1254 (Castello district) www.serradeigiardini.org It offers several dining spaces and a small inner courtyard.

Map E6 A panoramic view over the city, a long history devoted to art and a present infused with a passion for photography: the Casa dei Tre Oci is one of Venice’s best-kept secrets. By Elena Peverata T here is a place in Venice, off the beaten track, that allows you to appreciate the romantic side of the city from a unique perspective. Located on the Island of Giudecca, the Casa dei Tre Oci is a magnificent example of early 20th century Neo-Gothic Venetian architecture, an exhibition space dedicated to photography and an extraordinary vantage point overlooking the basin of San Marco. Situated in an area of unusual artistic and historic interest, the building is strategically positioned in front of the Punta della Dogana, St. Mark’s Square and the Ducal Palace, and is only steps from the Church of Il Redentore. Designed in 1913 by the artist Mario De Maria as a house and studio, the Casa dei Tre Oci (the house with three eyes), was, until the end of 44 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 the 1980s, a place of meeting and discussion, a studio, and a space for artists and intellectuals visiting Venice from all over the world. In 2012, following in-depth restoration, the building became a public art gallery, dedicated to the study and narration of themes and languages related to contemporary art, in particular, photography and the visual arts. It also houses the photography collection owned by the Fondazione di Venezia and a thematic library. Finally, two rooms are dedicated to the De Maria family. Original furnishings and a selection of paintings and drawings offer visitors a glimpse into the family’s life during artistic gatherings. Over the past few years, the space has hosted important solo and collective exhibitions. In 2016, it featured the works of Helmut Newton, Ferdinando Scianna and René Burri. Now and until 2 April, the complex is hosting "Arctic. The Final Frontier": 120 black and white images taken by three masters of photo journalism – Italy’s Paolo Solari Bozzi, Iceland’s Ragnar Axelsson and Denmark’s Carsten Egevang - who, based on their different perspectives, explore the immense Arctic region and the life of the Inuit living there, highlighting the threat of global warming and the powerful beauty of nature. >> ARCTIC.

It is is almost impossible to list all of them, but for more information you can visit the www. canalgrandevenezia.it website. For excursions and Ghetto di Venezia Although documentation chronicles the presence of a Jewish community in Venice from before the year 1000, it was only during the 6th century, due to political unrest in Europe and a significant increase in non-Christian immigrants that, for the first time, the Venetian Senate, issued a decree stating that the Jewish population should move to a specific part of the city, where they could be better ‘controlled’. Thus Jews were forced to move to this, then, remote northwestern corner of Venice, to an abandoned site of a 14thcentury foundry (‘ghetto’ is old Venetian dialect for "foundry," a word that would soon be used throughout Europe and the world to depict an area where isolated minority groups lived. The Venetian Ghetto nevertheless became a thriving, vibrant district. In 1797, when Napoleon rolled into town, the ghetto was disbanded as an institution, and Jews were free to move elsewhere. Today it is still the center of Venice's ever-diminishing community of Jewish families. Vaporetto lines 4.1, 4.2, 5.1 (Ponte Guglie stop).

Witness to centuries of history, it is exciting to cross it (shutterbugs permitting), but even more spectacular when seen from the water, perhaps aboard a gondola. Originally built during medieval times as a pontoon bridge at the canal’s narrowest point to facilitate access to the popular Rialto Market, it is still a hub of commerce and is lined on both sides by shops. Unfortunately, it is not accessible to everyone; between upward and downward slopes, it includes as many as 120 steps.

Murano is famous throughout the world for its hand-blown glass (artisanal workshops still display glassmakers at work). Torcello, birthplace of the lagoon, once a thriving town with 8,000 inhabitants, is today a semirural island with only 17 permanent residents and two medieval churches that speak poignantly of past glories, and Burano, one of the most photographed sights in the world, thanks to colourful houses reflected in its canals. Burano is also famous for its artisanal lace work and a particular kind of biscuit, which also resembles lace. Find out more and buy tickets for your trip to these magical destinations. Visitors love these islands, and there may be a risk of not finding a seat on the boat. See Map page 62. MUSEUMS & EXHIBITION SITES Ca’ Pesaro-International Gallery of Modern Art The phenomenon of 'acqua alta' Acqua alta (High Water) is a Venetian phenomenon that involves the entire city when either the planetary tides – the Scirocco wind and wave motion in the Adriatic, or a combination of all these elements – cause an increased flow of water into Venice’s lagoon. When this happens, the city is flooded. While causing tourists serious inconvenience, the ‘acqua alta’ is not at all like the experience described in the horror stories that do the rounds each winter. For a city built on water, it’s a way of life and even a one-of-a-kind experience. If you happen to be in Venice on an ‘acqua alta’ day (on average, it occurs once every three years) invest in a pair of wellies, arm yourself with a camera and explore the city to your heart’s content.

Scuola di San Rocco Among Venice’s countless art treasures, buildings known as ‘Scuole’ or ‘Scuole Grandi’ might be mentioned as unmissable attractions. It goes without saying that these are not schools in the accepted sense of the word, but one of the innumerable distinctive features of this unique city. During the ancient Republic of Venice, from the 13th century onwards, the word ‘Scuola’ was, in fact, used to describe a brotherhood, or rather an association of lay members who met to provide assistance to poor people, widows, orphans, old and sick people. The ‘Scuole’ were divided into Devotional Schools (or Scuole Grandi) which gathered for religious purposes in the name of a patron saint, Schools of Arts and Crafts and Schools of Foreign Communities (Scuole Piccole or Scuolette). Until the fall of the Republic, they represented a real kind of welfare system, initially destined for members but later extended to the entire population. The ‘Scuole Grandi’ had countless means at their disposal, a part of which they invested to embellish their own headquarters with paintings by well-known artists including Tintoretto, Jacopo Palma il Giovane or Giambattista Tiepolo. As time passed, the most important Schools built palaces for their residents designed by famous architects, and adorned them with paintings by the best artists of the era. After the fall of the Republic of Venice in 1797, the Schools were suppressed by a Napoleonic edict (1807) and within the space of a short time their assets ended up at antique markets and collections throughout the world. Several of the best preserved Schools were reconstituted and transformed into museums that can now be visited by the public. These include the Great Schools of San Giovanni Evangelista (www. scuolasangiovanni.it), the Scuola di San Rocco (www.scuolagrandesanrocco. it) and the Scuola dei Carmini (www. scuolagrandecarmini.it). Others, including the Scuole Grandi di San Teodoro (www. scuolagrandesanteodoro.it), the Scuola di San Marco (the seat of the city’s hospital), www.scuolagrandesanmarco.it), and the Scuola di Santa Maria Giustizia or San Fantin, currently home to Venice’s Faculty of Science, Literature and Arts (www. ateneoveneto.org), were converted into public exhibition spaces and institutions. The Scuola Dalmata di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni and the Scuola di San Nicolò dei Greci (currently Venice’s Museum of Icons), are ‘small’ schools whose artistic treasures are well worth a visit. Lastly, an interesting fact: the facade of the Scuola Grande di Santa Maria della Carità, suppressed in 1806, is now the entrance to the magnificent Accademia Galleries. w w w. w heretravel er. com 47 SIGHTSEEING | MUSEUMS & ATTRACTIONS MUSEUMS & ATTRACTIONS Museo Archeologico Nazionale St. Mark’s, the soul of Venice Housed with the Correr Museum and the Marciana Library in the rooms of the Procuratie Nuove in St. Mark’s Square, the museum boasts an extraordinary collection of Greek and Roman sculptures as well as a noteworthy selection of ancient coins, gems and cameos, bronze artifacts and pottery.

Founded ‘only’ in 1870, it has, since its establishment, been one of the favourite destinations of illustrious figures, including King Vittorio Emanuele III, who visited it in 1936, as the royal coat of arms at its entrance bears witness.

By Simona P.K. Daviddii VILLAS OF BRENTA The magnificent Brenta Riviera, crossed by the Brenta River and its canals, occupies most of the stretch of land that runs from Padua to Venice. Over the centuries, sumptuous villas, set in lush, beautifully tended gardens, were built on the banks of different waterways. There are approximately thirty villas, and the best way to admire them is from the water, embarking either in Padua or Venice for a pleasant day cruise, perhaps on board a ‘burchiello’, a reproduction of the ancient 18th century craft used by Venetian noblemen. Among the gems that embellish the shores, the monumental Villa Pisani in Stra, is a must see. Palladio also left his mark on Brenta: near Mira, you will find the 16th century Villa Foscari also known as la Malcontenta. In Mira, make sure to visit the 16th century Villa Contarini dei Leoni and in its vicinity Villa Widman, a spectacular 18th century complex. The last noteworthy aristocratic dwelling is Villa Sagredo in Vignovo. It was built on the remains 54 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 of a medieval castle and is still inhabited, some say, by the ghost of Giovanni Sagredo, a disciple and friend of Galileo Galilei. www.rivieradelbrentaturismo.com Above all, Verona is known as the city of love.

At Villa Barbarigo, in the province of Padua, you can admire the authentic Italian Baroque Garden of Valsanzibio. Over the years, it has gained international recognition. In addition being published in leading art and botany books, it was named the most beautiful garden in Italy in 2003 and one of the most beautiful in Europe in 2007. In 2004, it was used as the setting for the Merchant of Venice, a romantic film starring Al Pacino. In 2013, ‘QVC’, an American television network, chose it for a program that was aired live and, in 2016 ‘Arte’, the European Culture Channel, dedicated an installment of the program ‘Jardins d’ici et d’ailleurs’ to it, selecting it from among twenty of Europe’s most important historical gardens. Each year, the garden is a highly sought-after destination for international tourists. THE MAJESTIC PARK, THE STAR OF THE SHOW The villa, which was used as a residence prior to the design of its monumental garden, complements the majestic park. In fact, it is the only Veneto Villa whose park is the main feature. The garden was built during the second half of the 17th century by Venetian nobleman Zuane Francesco Barbarigo, with the help of his sons, Antonio and Gregorio. 56 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 It was the latter – a cardinal, the Archbishop of Padua and a future saint – who inspired the religious symbolism of the project designed by leading Vatican architect and fountain expert Luigi Bernini, brother of the famous sculptor Gianlorenzo. Cardinal Barbarigo wanted the garden of Valsanzibio to symbolize the path of perfection that leads man from Error to Truth, from Ignorance to Revelation. The Pavilion or Portal of Diana was not the only main access route via water to the Barbarigo estate in the 12th and 13th centuries. This superb, imposing gateway represented the beginning of the Road to Salvation, ending in the open space that houses the Fountain of the Mushroom, also known as the Fountain of Ecstasy. A SYMBOLIC ITINERARY This magnificent Baroque garden has 70 statues, mostly by Marengo, sculpted in Istrian stone. There are also other minor sculptures that blend harmoniously with the architecture, streams, waterfalls, fountains, water features and fish pools that are scattered amidst numerous trees and shrubs, spread over more than 10 hectares of land. Additionally, within the complex itself, important highlights along the Road to Salvation include the Bosso maze, the symbolic Cave of the Hermit, Rabbit Island and the Monument to Time. Until the 19th century, WELCOME TO THE COLLI EUGANEI Known as the ‘Pearl of the Euganei Hills’, Villa Barbarigo with its monumental garden is located in an area steeped in nature and history, the ideal destination for art lovers and nature enthusiasts. Thanks to the thermal waters of Abano and Montegrotto Terme, the largest spa hub in Europe, the area is a sought-after destination for those in search of relaxing, wellness retreats Garden of Villa Barbarigo visitors could access the Portal of Diana – socalled because of the goddess of hunting who stands atop it – via water from Venice. Today, Battaglia can still be reached by boat. In those days, however, initiates had to cross the Valley of Sant’Eusebio, now known as Valsanzibio (from which the garden takes its name) to reach the landing stage in front of the garden. AN AUTHENTIC HISTORICAL GARDEN Built between 1665 and 1696, the garden of Valsanzibio is an extraordinary example of a symbolic garden. This magnificent garden boasts a number of fully operative water features and is currently one of the largest, best-kept Baroque gardens in the world. Credit for the preservation of this beautifully tended garden is owed to the loving care bestowed upon it by the ‘Barbarigo Noblemen’ during the 17th and 18th centuries, the noble Michiel family and the Counts of Martinengo during the 19th century and the Counts of Donà delle Rose during the early 20th century. The villa and it gardens have been the property of the Counts of Pizzoni-Ardemani since 1929. Owners of the estate for three generations, the PizzoniArdemani family not only repaired the damage caused by military occupation and the forced abandonment of the villa during World War II, but also recently renovated all of the garden’s 33 water features, damaged by eighty years of gradual ground-water depletion. www.valsanzibiogiardino.it [email protected] The mud used by the spas of the hotels in Abano and Montegrotto Terme, affiliated with the AQUAEHOTELS Consortium, is identified by the ‘Fango Eutrofico Eudermico Euganeo ( “F.E.E.E.”) trademark and is quality certified.

For the first time, in the exclusive “Venetian Thermal Water” line, thermal spring water is combined with two anti-ageing properties: hyaluronic acid which helps to restore skin elasticity, and natural antioxidants, including Goji and Cassia Alato Leaf extracts, which protect the skin from the effects of ageing. This line is a result of the combination of thermal water drawn from four springs in the Veneto region, mixed to obtain different concentrations based on their specific salinity: water from the Primavera Source of the Palatini-based ‘Terme di Salzano’ (in which bicarbonate, calcium and magnesium are dissolved); the waters of ‘Terme di Bibione’ (originating from deep underground springs); the low mineral content water from the ‘Terme dei Colli Asolani’ in Crespano (home to the spring named for Empress Sissi ); and finally, the water of the ‘Terme Euganee’ (which flows through the municipalities of Abano, Montegrotto, Battaglia, Teolo and Galzignano at a temperature of 87°C). ‘Venetian Thermal Water’ can be purchased online at www.aquaehotels.it or from the best hotels and sales points in the area.

Trains “SESTIERI”, THE DISTRICTS OF VENICE FERROVIE DELLO STATO - Trenitalia Railway Venice, the Floating City Some information and invaluable tips to experience the best that this magical city on water has to offer. By Simona P. K. Daviddi Italians (at least many of them), may already know that Venice… actually floats! Unlike Amsterdam or Saint Petersburg, it is not just furrowed by canals, bordered by roads and pavements. In Venice, canals are the only available communication route, bearing in mind that part of the city extends over a handful of beautiful islands that are scattered across the Lagoon. For this reason, the lagoon city can only be crossed on foot or by boat. Cars, motorbikes, bicycles and even roller skates are strictly forbidden. But this is not all. At times Venice may find itself... under water! The acqua alta phenomenon – the result of heavy rainfall and high tides - can cause the water level to rise by as much as a meter, forcing everyone to walk on raised plank walkways, or don rain boots (many shops, including tobacconists, sell disposable 58 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 ones) in order to cross the city’s flooded calli, campielli and salizade. Calli, campielli and salizade are Venetian words used to identify streets, squares and alleys while sestieri is the local word indicating the six districts the city is divided into: San Marco, Dorsoduro, Cannaregio, Santa Croce, San Polo and Castello. This division dates back to the 12th century and also includes areas such as La Giudecca, the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore (San Marco) and the Island of San Michele, home to the city’s cemetery (Castello). Street numbers in each sestiere start from 1 and often reach four figures, for example, one of the last numbers of the sestiere of Castello is 7,000. You need to learn them if you want to find your way through the spectacular, maze-like historic centre. Venice also has its own network of public... and private transportation: its vaporetti, real waterbuses, are the most popular craft used by locals, which is why they are often very crowded during peak hours. These enginepowered water taxis are able to whiz across the lagoon in a heartbeat, but for those who prefer a unique, incredibly romantic experience, the famous, distinctive gondola is an absolute must. This elegant, black, one-oared rowing boat drifts gently across the water, while its gondolier sings an entire repertoire of traditional Venetian folk songs. It goes without saying that the waters of the canals are not suitable for swimming, and their banks are often slippery. Be careful not to be so focused on your selfie stick that you walk into a canal because you might be in for some © PAOLA DALLA VALENTINA rather unpleasant surprises! Company - Info T: 892021. www.trenitalia.com. Venice’s Railway Station (Santa Lucia) can be accessed from all main European and Italian cities. The Railway Station overlooks the lagoon and is located just steps from the stops of Venice’s main public transportation lines. E.g.: to reach St. Mark’s Square by vaporetto, take line 1 or 2.

VENEZIA UNICA - The official tourism website of the City of Venice (www.veneziaunica.it) Tourist Card VENEZIA UNICA CITY PASS is an all-in-one pass that offers unlimited use of public transportation, admission to tourist attractions and cultural events in the city, plus a number of other useful services. You can purchase your card online and customize your Venezia Unica City Pass to suit your individual travel needs (www.veneziaunica.it/en) exchange vouchers. Open daily 9am-4pm. T: 392 6786628. Cannaregio, like Castello, is the largest and most densely populated district of Venice. Its name probably derives from the expanse of reeds found in the swamps on which it was built. Castello takes its name from the castle of which traces still remain today. It extends around the Arsenale and includes the Gardens of the Biennale and the Riva degli Schiavoni. Dorsoduro is named after the compact sand dunes found in this area. It overlooks both the Grand Canal and the Giudecca Canal, along which the long promenade known as the Fondamenta delle Zattere stretches. San Marco takes its name from the Basilica. This is the city’s main sestiere because it houses the palaces that once constituted the government of Venice until its fall. San Polo, which takes its name from the church of San Polo, is the geographic centre of Venice. It stretches from the highest part of the Rialto Bridge and is the place where the Rialto fish and vegetable market is held. Santa Croce takes its name from the ancient church of the same name which unfortunately was demolished under Napoleon’s rule. It includes the Stazione Marittima and the piazzale Roma terminal, a junction for train and road transport (buses, cars) and lagoon traffic (ferries, vaporetti or water buses). w w w. w heretravel er. com 59 ESSENTIALS FOR MORE LISTINGS VISIT WWW.WHERE-VENICE.COM GETTING AROUND VENICE THE LIDO OF VENICE Because it is a relatively small, compact city (a 45-minute walk from North to South) whose main points of interest are situated just a short distance from each other, visiting Venice on foot is the ideal solution. Although the Lido is Venice’s beach, it is also much more. An island, a town with its own history and a nature reserve, it is also a jet-setters’ paradise, with luxury hotels and exclusive villas. In September, it becomes the world capital of cinema. Vaporetti - An efficient network of water bus routes covers the entire city and includes transportation to the islands.The service is active 24/24h but runs less frequently between 9.30pm and 6am. Landing stages are located at central points around the city (including Piazzale Roma, Rialto, Piazza San Marco…) . Tickets - Although paper tickets are available at main embarkation points and from authorized resellers displaying the ACTV logo, electronic tickets can also be pre-purchased online. ACTV. Piazzale Roma. T: 041 2424. www actv.it. There are 6 different types of tickets, ranging from hourly tickets (€7.50 for a 75’ regular route) to a weekly pass (€60) for unlimited travel on almost all lines. TIP The boat trip from one bank of the Grand Canal to the other costs 50 cents (via ferry).You can pre-purchase reduced-price tickets from Venice Connected: www.veniceconnected.com. IMOB smart cards are available at all ACTV ticket offices. Although they allow you to save on official rates, they are only recommended for long-term visits. Gondolas - These traditional craft are among the best-known tourist attraction for those wishing to experience a view of Venice that is anything but pedestrian. They are used almost exclusively by tourists (and Venetians on their wedding days). TIP Before embarking, we suggest that you check official rates (approximately €80 for 45 minutes and €100 after 7pm). Agree on a price, time limit and singing in advance to avoid unexpected surcharges. Associazione dei Gondolieri T. 041 5285075. www. gondolavenezia.it Traghetti (Ferries) - ‘Traghetti’ are gondolas that cross the Grand Canal in 8 points. ‘Traghetti’ rides cost just €2 for non-residents (for holders of City Pass Venezia Unica or ACTV passes, rides cost 0.70) and operate almost non-stop. Four ferry services operate in Venice. Taxi - Water taxis with a cabin (private water taxis) are available for hire from 16 landing stages, including Lido Aeroporto Marco Polo, piazzale Roma, Ferrovia, Rialto and San Marco, or from your hotel. TIP Although private water taxis can be costly, they are the fastest and most practical means of getting around Venice. Ask your concierge. Car - The city can be accessed from the mainland by car, thanks to an elevated section (a 4km bridge, the longest in Italy, also known as the ‘Translagunare’), with limited parking options at garages in Piazzale Roma or on the Island of Tronchetto. Prices for 24-hour parking cost approximately €30 euro. TIP It’s advisable to travel to Mestre by car (24-hour parking costs approximately €15 euro) and then continue on to Venice by public transport. PHOTOS © SVIDA_WHEREITALIA Gondolas, a tourist’s dream! A hallmark symbol of Venice, who has never dreamt of riding on one of these marvels of craftsmanship, whose charms have withstood the test of time? The components (approximately 280) of these extraordinary craft still bear their almost fairytale-like names of the past: ‘sankòni’, ‘fiùboni’, ‘solarai’ and ‘maistre’... To name but a few. 60 W H E R E V E N I C E I M A R C H 2017 Tradition has it that each gondolier has his own gondola, custommade according to his weight and height. Among the most ancient boatyards (or 'squeri'), the most remarkable is perhaps that of Domenico Tramontin and Sons. Established in 1884, it was the supplier to the House of Savoy, the Prefecture and the Commune of Venice (Dorsoduro, 1542. www.tramontingondole.it). An interesting feature that you are bound to notice on a gondolier’s uniform is the logo. Its most recent version was created by the Style Department of Duca d’Aosta, a shop established in 1902 in the Rialto neighbourhood by Emilio Ceccato. The logo features St. Mark as the Winged Lion, holding an open book, a symbol of peace and strength, framed by two 'ferri' – the traditional iron gondola prow ornaments (also known in Venetian as 'fero da próva' or 'dolfin'). Bringing one home as a keepsake is neither easy (nor cheap!), but you can avoid this by purchasing a souvenir created ad hoc. Where? At Emilio Ceccato’s clothing and accessory store, the official supplier and technical sponsor of the Associazione Gondolieri di Venezia (The Gondolier’s Association of Venice) in San Polo 16/17 (T: 041 5222700) and in San Marco, 257 (T: 041 8478885). www.emilioceccato.com The Lido (meaning beach in Italian) is a separate island from Venice. Measuring less than 200 metres in depth in certain areas, it is a 12km stretch of sand, strategically positioned between the Lagoon and the open sea, only connected to the city and dry land by ‘vaporetti’ or ferry boats. The clear difference between the Lido and Venice is that the Lido has real streets, which means you get around by car. In mid-November, Rolls Royce’s, Cadillac’s and Bentleys abound at the entrances of grand hotels. However, today, it is considered chicer to access the Lido by boat or explore it on foot or by bicycle. WHAT TO SEE - The nature reserve and wild sand dunes of the Alberoni, recognized and protected by the WWF since 1997, are the perfect place for a quick swim. The area comprises 160 hectares of land, including two kilometers of golden sand dunes that extend from Murazzi to the Alberoni dam, and a beautiful pine forest. For a natural beach experience, the Lido also offers several free beaches, like the sandy dunes of San Nicolò, the rocky outcrops of the Murazzi, or the beach known to the Venetians as ‘Bluemoon”. The Excelsior Venice Hotel Among other attractions, the area is home to an exclusive golf club set against a stunning backdrop of umbrella pines and poplars. Founder of the famous automotive house and an avid fan of Venice, Henry Ford commissioned the course in 1926, when he discovered to his disappointment that there was nowhere else where he could play golf, a sport widely practiced in America, but not in Italy at that time. WHERE TO GO - Moving to the other end of the island, we find Malamocco, a small, ancient town that offers visitors a mini experience of Venice with its canals, ‘campielli’ and ancient buildings. Also dating back to olden times, in a more northerly direction, is the settlement of San Nicolò, featuring a Benedictine complex built in the 11th century. WHAT TO DO - Don’t miss a walk, or even better, a bike ride along the Murazzi, the remains of ancient fortresses which are now used as a race track. Bicycles are provided by several of the island’s hotels. If you happen to be there at the right time, you will be treated to a breathtaking sunset. What’s more, you’ll also get a glimpse of a wilder, more untamed side of Venice, amidst the boats and fishermen searching for clams. One of the island’s rituals, that you should not miss is having a ‘spritz’: the Venetian cocktail or aperitivo par excellence. You won’t have any trouble finding one at any bar on the Gran Viale, the Lido’s promenade. If you’re not pressed for time you can catch a boat from the Gran Viale to Pellestrina (where you can eat fabulously fresh fish, or a sandwich with fried sardines), or travel to Chioggia, a second, smaller Venice that abounds in fabulous small restaurants.
