Formerly, the Roman forum, this is an attractive marketplace where you can soak up a genuinely Italian atmosphere at the market.

This square, reached through Via della Costa, is surrounded by palaces such as the 12th century Palazzo del Comune (Town Hall), dominated by the Lamberti Tower, as well as the Loggia del Consiglio, an elegant building in the Venetian-Renaissance style.

Play the City-The Legend of Romeo and Juliet - Led by a local registered tourist guide in the City of Love, students will become an integral part of the story of the city; travelling between monuments, legends, facing riddles, games and clues.

The epicentre of tourist activity in Venice and a landmark location for housing the foremost church and citadel in the city. Visit the Bell Tower, an imposing 97-meter architectural marvel erected in the mid 9th century that offers a nice vista of the square and surrounding churches and homes.

The foremost bridge on the Grand Canal was built at this commercial hub and has been reinstated by a fine-looking arch design of Antonio da Ponte.
