It’s just across the bridge; but it’s another world.
The bridge in question is the Rialto, which spans the Grand Canal – the central waterway of Venice, so it’s not your everyday transition.

On the St Mark’s Square side is Venice at its most popular – and busy.
On this side, you can walk till you come to a dead end… or get lost, or both, and recover your wits at the nearest family restaurant.

These are few and far between, but, in our experience, all wonderful; which makes getting lost in the quieter part of ‘town’ a delight.

E’ sempre bellissimo ritornare a Venezia! Grazie mille Stephen:)
