  7. Bridge of Sighs

    attraction

    30124 Venice, Metropolitan City of Venice, Italy

    Built to move prisoners over the Rio di Palazzo. The name comes from the legend that prisoners would sigh while catching their final glimpse of Venice through the tiny windows before prison. Dark. Dramatic. Love the lore.

  10. Ponte di Rialto

    attraction

    30125 Venice, Metropolitan City of Venice, Italy

    Go early (like 8am early) if you want cute photos without 400 people in them. You’ll cross it naturally a bunch of times anyway. The bridge itself is basically one long souvenir mall, so actually enjoying the view can be… challenging.

  15. Libreria Acqua Alta

    shop

    C. Longa Santa Maria Formosa, 5176b, 30122 Venezia VE, Italy

    If you go, go right when they open. Otherwise it’s packed. Also the staff seem to have a complicated relationship with tourists… which, honestly, fair.
