The moment I arrived in Venice, I was completely stunned

The city of Venice on water, just like in elementary school textbooks Venice, considered by many as "one of the most romantic cities in Europe," is filled with medieval romance. 🗓Itinerary: One-day tour: Train station - Rialto Bridge - Piazza San Marco - Bridge of Sighs - Accademia Bridge (if you only play on the main island, just walk around) Two-day tour: In addition to the first day's itinerary, on the second day you can visit Murano (Glass Island) and Burano (Colorful Island). Take the No. 12 water bus, and it is recommended to buy a 1-day pass for 25 euros, which covers all transportation for the day. 🚉Transportation Guide: Download the AVM VENEZIA App, which can be used for transportation in Mestre and Venice Island, including trains and water buses to the island. Ticket purchase method: Transport - my Tickets - Buy Tickets - select the appropriate duration. 📷Photo Recommendations: Accademia Bridge Piazza San Marco Cafe Florian (right on Piazza San Marco) Basilica di San Marco Campanile di San Marco: Overlooking Venice Libreria Acqua Alta: The most beautiful bookstore in the world ❤Recommended Attractions: Basilica di San Marco A church that took over six hundred years to complete, it is one of Venice's iconic buildings. It was once the largest church in medieval Europe and is also a treasure trove of rich artworks. Piazza San Marco Napoleon once praised it as "the most beautiful drawing room in Europe." The Campanile di San Marco is also on the square. Standing in the square, listening to the bells, with the sun shining on you and the sound of pigeons flapping their wings in your ears, it feels wonderful. Ponte dei Sospiri (Bridge of Sighs) A Baroque stone bridge, it is one of the most famous bridges in Venice. The bridge connects the court and the prison, and condemned prisoners would pass through here before execution, sighing at the end of their lives, hence the name. But it is more famous for its romantic story: it is said that couples who kiss under the Bridge of Sighs will be together forever. Burano The houses on the small island are painted in bright colors, hence it is called the Colorful Island. These colorful houses form colorful alleys, and the brightly colored boats by the river match perfectly, as if entering a fairy tale world. Gondola There are gondola docks everywhere on the main island of Venice, with green signs that say "Gondola," and usually, there are gondoliers in striped shirts chatting nearby. You can also book in advance online or by phone. The best time to experience a gondola ride is in late spring or early autumn, when the temperature is around 20°C, which is very comfortable.
