š®š¹Venice in 6 HoursāļøThe Ultimate Romantic Trip
Our last stop in Italy was Venice. I didnāt have high expectations at first, but the moment we stepped out of the train station, we were completely blown away! Venice is truly one of the most unique cities in Italy. Even though we only had a short time, I managed to visit all the famous spots! Hereās the route I took: šRoute: Rialto Bridge ā St. Markās Square ā St. Markās Campanile ā Bridge of Sighs ā Libreria Acqua Alta ā Back to Rialto Bridge šļøRialto Bridge: Veniceās most famous scenic bridge! The center of the bridge offers the best view of the Grand Canalš¬, and the bridge itself is incredibly photogenic. There are many small shops underneath where you can grab a coffee and enjoy the view by the river! šļøSt. Markās Square: The most beautiful drawing room in Europe! A spacious, square-shaped plaza with countless seagulls soaring above. šļøSt. Markās Campanile: Climb to the top! Totally worth it! You can see Veniceās surrounding islands, the cathedral, and a stunning birdās-eye view of half architecture, half waterways! šļøBridge of Sighs: A sealed arched bridge It connected the court to the prison. Condemned prisoners would cross this bridge and sigh at their fateāhence the name. Before visiting, take photos with the gondolas parked along the Grand Canal! Thereās a perfect spot under the bridge for pictures. šļøLibreria Acqua Alta: A popular with long queues. Browse postcards, take photos in the backyard, and donāt forget to snap a picture with the black cat in the storeāthe star of the shop! šŗ šStroll through Veniceās quiet alleys and pick up some unique souvenirs. The streets are so peaceful and perfect for a walk! š„£Lunch: Try Veniceās delicious seafood feast! š®Dessert: Grab a tiramisu from a nearby shop and enjoy it by the canal! šļøRialto Bridge: Return to see the bridge under different lighting, then take a boat from the nearby port back to the train station. Even though it was a short trip, Venice left a lasting impression on me. Iād read about it as a child and thought it would be overly commercialized, but the main island is actually quiet and perfect for immersive experiences! šļøTips: While walking from the Rialto Bridge to St. Markās Square, donāt forget to take pictures of the gondolas passing under the bridgesāevery shot is postcard-worthy! #ExtremeTravelForStudents #TravelGuide #VeniceTravels āØš®š¹
