A wonderland of canals, gondolas, palazzos and museums, we all know Venice to be a city of extraordinary beauty. Use our guide to steer you round centuries’ worth of magnificent art. Lose yourself exploring winding streets, or sit in a café and contemplate the majesty of a place where Casanova once lived.
