This year the famous CARNIVAL in Venice will take place from 02/26/11 to 03/08/11, if you are on these dates...
What to watch:
- The Grand Canal is the central water transport artery of the city, its length is 3800 meters.
- The Doge's Palace, built in the 14th century, is one of the most beautiful buildings in the city.
- Galleria dell'Accademia - 24 rooms displaying works by all the great masters of Venice from the 14th to 18th centuries, including works by Giovanni Bellini, Vittore Carpaccio, Giorgione, Titian, Veronese, Tintoretto.
- The Peggy Guggenheim Collection is one of the largest collections of contemporary art. So here are the works of Picasso, Braque, Léger, Dali, Kupka, Chagall, Magritte, Delvaux, Tanguy, Kandinsky, Braque.
- Saint Mark's Square - the largest square in the city, it houses the Cathedral of San Marco.
- Next to the cathedral is the Torre del Orologio clock tower. The dial on the tower was made by Parma masters Giampaolo and Giancarlo Ranieri. The clock shows the time, the phases of the moon and the movement of the sun in relation to the signs of the zodiac and the seasons.
- Santa Maria della Salute - one of the most famous churches in the city, belongs to the Renaissance.

Verona is also worth seeing. Juliet's house, Arena (analogue of the Colosseum), etc. I personally like the small cities of Italy even more

We have already written about Venice, I will add a few words about Verona: buy a small guide to Verona, it offers several routes, if time permits, go around everything. These guides are sold in Verona at every turn and there are also in Russian.
For Venice:
on the Grand Canal it is better to ride a water tram, more impressions
there are many Russian speakers who work in the service sector, ask how and where to buy a ticket, this is in case you do not know Italian
Walk to the Bridge of Sighs for great views of both sides of the canal
You can take excursions to the islands of Murano and Burano, unfortunately we did not visit them due to lack of time
Shops with the famous jewelry are best visited somewhere a little further from the center, where prices are much lower, the same is with prices in restaurants
Good luck to you!
