The unforgettable city of Venice








Evocative architecture, romantic ambience and charming heritage—a visit to this Italian city is like walking into a painting. Glimpses of artisans at their creative best, cooks whipping up mouth-watering dishes and musicians humming everything from classical tunes to rock, every nook and corner of Venice is steeped in culture, art and history.






Sail in Venetian waters
With a cup of gelato in your hand, explore this picture-postcard city on an iconic gondola ride. Sail in the city’s meandering waterways and take in stunning views of historical landmarks, the colour-changing skyline, outdoor restaurants and cafes at sunset.




















Stroll across the Rialto Bridge
This pedestrian stone arch bridge on the Grand Canal is one of the oldest bridges in Venice. A landmark of the city, the 400-year bridge is 75-foot-wide and 24-foot long, and among its most picturesque stretches






















Discover Venice’s history
Once called ‘the drawing room of Europe’ by Napolean, the San Marco Square is the vantage point for city’s well-known attractions. St. Mark’s Basilica (Basilica di San Marco), Doge’s Palace and Torre dell’Orologio form the nerve centre of the city and offer intriguing glimpses of Venice’s glorious past.
