If you want a beautiful view of the whole of Venice, the lagoon and the islands, I suggest you take the elevator to the top of the bell tower (approx. 60 meter) of the San Giorgio Maggiore church. This allows you to see the San...More
You can get to the top of San Giorgio’s Bell Tower for 6€. Views from there are amazing! I would suggest everyone to skip the bell tower in Piazza San Marco and go straight to this one: there is no line, it is cheaper and...More
A classically significant church but very empty inside. The bell tower is what is really worth doing.
Ok, to make things clear, the place is a very good alternative for a fantastic view over the city. And it is much quieter as in the center. But the staff and organisation is just nonsense. The tower is opened till 19:00, the last ride...More
