The beautiful exterior of this church attracted me to go inside to have a look. Even though it's not as glamorous as the one in Rome, this church has its own beauty. Love the organ playing at 3.30pm just before the mass. It's really therapeutic!

Very quiet and peaceful, provide a 360 degree view of entire Venice from Bell Tower with minimum crowds away from San Marco. Highly recommend. Closing time is 7.
