Venice & The Veneto travel guide

Venice & The Veneto - Sestiere di San Marco (Chapter)

This is the Sestiere di San Marco chapter from Lonely Planet’s Venice & the Veneto guidebook.

So many attractions are packed into San Marco, some visitors are loath to visit, fearing crowds. But why miss the pleasures of La Fenice, Basilica di San Marco, Palazzo Ducale and Museo Fortuny? Far from a dusty museum-piece, San Marco’s backstreets are packed with art galleries, artisan boutiques and well-stocked enoteche (wine bars).

  • Hear expressions of awe ripple through the crowd as you enter the Basilica di San Marco and look up to discover heavenly visions covering 8500 sq metres of glittering golden mosaics.
  • maps
  • transport
  • restaurants & bars
  • Shout brava! for encore performances at La Fenice, Venice’s jewel-box opera-house.
  • Discover dark secrets lurking in the attic behind the rosy facade of Palazzo Ducale.

Coverage includes: Neighbourhood Top Five, Explore: San Marco, Local Life, Getting There & Away, Sights, Eating, Drinking & Nightlife, Entertainment, Shopping and Shopping.
