Air

The Marco Polo Airport is the nearest and the only airport in Venice. A 12-kilometre drive from the city, most of the flights that arrive at this airport are from other European cities. The airport is well-connected to the main town by both road and canals.

Rail

The Santa Lucia Station is located within the town of Venice and is the main mode of transport that is often used by people to travel to different cities in Europe. The terminal is well-linked with not just the Italian cities like Rome, Milan, Florence and Padua but other European cities like Austria, Germany, Paris and London.

Piazza San Marco

Piazza San Marco is the principal public square of Venice, where it is generally known just as "The Piazza". Basilica of San Marco overlooks one of the most beautiful squares in the world, a real marble salon, the city centre for centuries. The square was separated from the palace by a small canal, the Rio Batario.

Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark

The Patriarchal Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark is the cathedral church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Venice, northern Italy. It is the most famous of the many churches of Venice and one of the finest examples of Byzantine architecture in the world.

Doge’s Palace

Doge’s Palace was the seat of the government of Venice for centuries. It was one of the main landmarks of the city of Venice in northern Italy. The openness of the building is a testament to the power of the city, which did not feel the need for a fortified castle, like most other cities at the time.

Grand Canal

The Grand Canal is a canal in Venice, Italy which forms one of the major water-traffic corridors in the city. Public transport is provided by water buses and private water taxis, and many tourists explore the canal by gondola. The banks of the Grand Canal are lined with more than 170 buildings, most of which date from the 13th to the 18th century, and demonstrate the welfare and art created by the Republic of Venice.
