Venice is a popular location regardless of the seasons, while many flock to Venice during the Summer months for its warm weather; many are also enchanted by the misty ambiance which settles over it during the Winter.
Venice is filled with treasures just waiting to be discovered and sightseeing on your city break in Venice is a must; top of the list is a visit to St Marks Square. Traditionally a meeting place for Venetians, this famous Square is also popular with tourists and is always bustling. The Square’s top attraction is the Basilica, a magnificent church marked with beautiful floor-to-ceiling mosaics but while there make sure you take the time to take in the views from the top of the bell-tower, sit in one of the many cafes that line the square or buy some seeds and have your photo taken covered with pigeons.
Make your way through the streets snaking their way through the city on your Venice holiday and you'll find boutique shops selling venetian glass and masks and ice cream shops in abundance and with most streets leading to another popular sight, the Rialto Bridge, it’s a great way to spend a couple of hours. Stand back in awe of the amazing bridge or buy a souvenir in one of the shops that line the bridge itself or take to the waters on a romantic gondola ride for a totally different view of the city. Another famous bridge is the Bridge of Sighs; myth has it that if lovers share a kiss below, they will find eternal happiness!
