The area

Address

Neighborhood: San Marco

The most famous sestiere (district) in Venice has one of the world's most famous squares, St. Mark's (Piazza San Marco). Anchored on one end by the basilica, clustered around it are restaurants, museums, shops, orchestras playing in the square, pigeons, the grand pink Doge’s Palace (Palazzo Ducale), the soaring campanile bell tower, an astrological clock tower, plus gorgeous cafes and restaurants like Florian and Quadri. Piazza San Marco is beloved by Venetians themselves. They book a table anytime, which offers a buffer from the fray. This grand outdoor drawing room attracts Venetians for a stroll too, especially late in the afternoon when the hoards of daytrippers thin out. It's simply a grand place to meet.

INTERESTING HISTORY

Apr 2017 • Couples

This small street within the sestieri San Marco is a filled in canal that runs from Rio de San Luca to Calle de la Mandola and is located close to Campo Sant’ Angelo. It is lined with shops, restaurants and apartments. Nice place to wander and be away from the crowds in Venice. Learn the history of the name of this street. Also at the junction of the Rio de San Luca is an excellent spot to get a photo of Ponte de la Cortesia.

Meaningful to me

Aug 2017 • Couples

I have a framed drawing of a gondola floating by the canal at the end of this quiet little alley. I love that drawing so i like to visit Rio Tera'dei Assassini when in Venice

Boring alley

Apr 2023

A dead end alley way with the back door to one restaurant and the front entrance to another. Hardly an attraction unless you want to visit Rosa Rossi from a boat and use the back entrance for discretion
