Location:
This stylish and elegant apartment is situated in a central location, close to wide open spaces and canals, as well as within easy walking distance of the quaint cafes of Santo Stefano, and the luxurious boutiques and historic attractions of St. Mark’s Square. Once referred to as the ‘drawing room of Europe’, this incredibly beautiful spot is an absolute must-see while you are in Venice, and it is here that you’ll find the famous St. Mark’s Basilica, the jewel of the square and undoubtedly one of the most beautiful churches in the world.
The basilica is full of stunning mosaics, relics of St. Mark himself, and perhaps most famous of all, the four bronze horses (that are actually made of copper!). Tours of the church interior are free of charge, but it is worth knowing that queues to enter this popular attraction can exceed 45 minutes at peak times, so Oliver recommends showing up early!
For something a little different during your stay, why not head to the Campo San Maurizio antique market, a popular attraction established in 1970 and which takes place over five weekends throughout the year. Exhibitors come here from all over Italy, selling goods and curiosities from the past, including books, furs, pipes, vintage shoes and postcards, chandeliers, pocket watches, jewellery and much more.
No trip to Venice would be complete without taking in some of the city’s iconic historical sights, and the apartment is perfectly situated for visiting galleries, museums and opera houses.
For an afternoon of people-watching, refreshments and relaxation, you couldn’t be in a better place, as there are several beautiful little cafes in the piazza, all serving excellent coffee and delicious pastries – often served with a side order of live music. Oliver recommends visiting Caffe Florian while you are here, which opened its doors in 1720 and is thought to be the oldest cafe in Europe. Enjoying an authentic Italian coffee in a 300-year-old cafe while overlooking a 1000-year-old church is certainly a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
It’s hard to spend time in St. Mark’s Square without noticing the impressive St. Mark’s Clocktower, with its stunning blue face and gold zodiac symbols. To truly appreciate this 500-year-old masterpiece, we highly recommend booking a guided tour to enjoy the inside of this fascinating building.
