  • Best tip is to put on yr walking boots and get out there... when any calle gets too busy, get off onto the side streets.. we spent two days taking in turns to decide whether to go left or right and found empty squares, beautiful churches, cheap restaurants and no tourists!! think most people stick to the main drags as they're afraid of getting lost.. all too easy in venice. But what better place to do so??

  • Parco Savorgnan, in the Cannareggio, is a beautiful, calm and peaceful park to retreat to and contemplate the beauty of Venice if you're suffering overload! Its located behind the Palazzo Venier; a small entrance to the right, next to the Palazzo Priuli-Manfrin, leads into the Park.

     Al Portico was no doubt more comfy than IN the portico of birdshit church haha. I only had a night and a day in Venice but I saw it the way you recommend. It's a beautiful memory :)
