Piazza San Marco
Piazza San Marco is the most famous and most central point of Venice. Everyone who has come here in the past 1000 years or so has visited this place. It was once famously called “the drawing room of Europe”, but Venetians simply call it “the Piazza". It has been the site of much elegance, drama and history. State visits of popes and emperors, public executions, religious processions, and of course, Carnival - the Piazza is where all that is grand has happened in one of the world's grandest cities, and in our tour you will hear her stories.
