Rialto Bridge Area

Venture towards the iconic Rialto Bridge, the oldest of the four bridges spanning the Grand Canal and a symbol of Venetian resilience and architectural prowess. Amidst the bustling atmosphere, discover a hidden 'bakery' where you can indulge in the local delicacy, 'sfogliatine' – flaky, layered pastries that embody the flavors of Venice. Explore the area's 'legends and shops', including the famous Venetian masks shops and unique boutiques offering dresses made from seaweed and traditional Venetian slippers, further enriching your sensory experience of the area.

Local Market

Step back in time at the local market, a historic hub of Venetian life where the city's pulse still beats strong.
