    After hearing lot about Torcello and seeing its tower in the distance from Burano I finally took the short ferry trip in November. The magnificent church is well worth a (short) visit. The climb up the stairs in the bell tower is even higher on my list of things to do: the views from the top are amazing, providing a very different view across the lagoon - astonishingly peaceful, beautiful and wild. On the way back to the boat we met two very large groups of visitors who piled off a tour boat.I'm glad we were lucky to have been alone up the tower! I suggest you get to Torcello early in the day. We passed two nice-looking restaurants but wanted to eat on Burano so didn't try the Torcello businesses. For a very different experience of Venice I recommend Torcello - you'll hear birdsong😀

    If you go to Burano, be sure to visit the Church on Torcello. You take a 9-minute vaporetto trip from Burano to reach Torcello, then walk along the canal until you reach the church.

    It was inspiring to see the beautiful mosaics without any crowds. You can stand and study them as long as you want. There is construction going on (we went on Saturday so no one was working) but that did not detract from the art work.

    Highly recommend.

    One of the bridges without railings. Of course there is a story but this may be the reason why it is called devil's bridge. It is a nice spot for photography.

    We were directed to this ancient stone throne in the Museo on Torcello & enjoyed its history and legends. Who really knows! Enjoy - Ciao!

    We’d learned about the Casa Museo Andrich and had planned our visit well in advance of our arrival on Torcello. Had a very nice escorted tour of the Andrich’s Artist’s Studio, Gallery & Grounds. Enjoyed the bright & colorful art & viewed the marshy edge of the Lagoon with its bird life - very pastoral & enjoyable.

    The main museum has some interesting artefacts, but is very old fashioned in its presentation. But up the steps opposite it is a very poorly signposted adjunct - which contains some of the finest carved relics of antiquity you will find. Most of these would grace any of the world’s major museums. And almost nobody seems to visit....It is enormously impressive. And completely devoid of visitors. Q
