  • The Rialto Market is a nice outdoor market where fresh fruits and vegetables are traded. Despite of its relatively neigbourhood to the Rialto Bridge, it still doesn't seem to be overcrowded by tourists.

    Just adjacent to the outdoor market the fish market (Peschiera) can be found. It is located in an old market hall.

    Directions:
    The Rialto Market and the fish market (Peschiera) are held only 5 minutes on food from the Rialto Bridge. They are situated at Campo San Giacomo and Campo della Pescheria in the San Polo district.

  • If you are looking for a typical souvenir of Venice, the glassware products of Murano might be an option.
    Murano is an island in the lagoon of Venice which is famous all over the world for artistic glassware products of any size from small glass sweets and drinking glasses to 18th century-style chandeliers. The products are on sale in many little shops on Murano, but can be also found in shops all over Venice.

     Beautiful opening shot! I would love to go back to Venice one day to explore those small alleys & waterways some more and see the islands - also the Rialto Market which we must have missed. Not sure we'll bother with the pubs though - plenty of them here!
