The beautiful Venetian old town consists of a total of 118 small islands and is famous for its rich art and architecture, which has attracted many tourists since the 18th century. Venice is home to some of Italy's most famous landmarks, such as St Mark's Basilica, the Doge's Palace around St Mark's Square. In the middle of Venice and directly on the Grand Canal, you can explore the city in a very special way - on a gondola ride. Probably the most famous waterway in the metropolis is the Grand Canal, which winds its way across the area in an S-shape. Hundreds of boats bring people from one side to the other every day or serve as excursion boats for many tourists. The Grand Canal flows past pompous buildings and palaces from the Italian Renaissance and gives visitors a wonderful view of the city's architectural gems. The canal itself is only five metres deep and on average fifty metres wide. More than 45 canals flow into the Grand Canal, making it the hub of Venetian shipping.
