Venice Grand Canal

Grand Canal of Venice, Italy

The Grand Canal is famous for many reasons: the stunning palaces that line its banks; the luxurious bridges that cross over waterways as well as the way it connects the city’s top attractions and, of course, the adventurous gondola rides that allow you to see it all. The Grand Canal is lined on either side by palaces, churches, hotels, and other public buildings in Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance styles
