St Mark's Basilica

February 23, 2023
One of the most beautiful and famous squares of Europe. Saint Marc's basilica and the Doge's palace are the oldest and the most amazing buildings here. They have been here since the pre-renaissance era. The Piazza San Marco is not far above sea level and during the high water from storm surges from the Adriatic or heavy rain, it is quick to flood.

The most beautiful St. Mark's Cathedral, the most famous in Venice and its symbol. The temple is decorated with beautiful mosaics, with scenes from the Bible (Old and New Testaments) also depicting events from the life of Christ, the Virgin Mary, St. Mark and other saints. Words cannot describe the greatness, beauty and significance of this holy place.

The heart of Venice! Piazza San Marco, San Marco Tower, Doge's Palace, Correr Museum and.. San Marco Cathedral! All these buildings are beautiful and significant, and the cathedral especially. An example of the architectural symbiosis of Byzantine and Venetian architecture, painting and sculpture. It is beautiful both outside and inside. The only problem is that you need to allocate at least half a day to visit it, since it will take an hour or even more just to wait in line.

Strangely enough, but the best and most interesting gondola rides are best to start right near the square and best of all in the evening. The memories are amazing

Perhaps the most beautiful cathedral in Venice and one of the most beautiful in Italy. Unusual architecture and great detail.

A historical and very beautiful place! I highly recommend it if you have the opportunity to visit! But I recommend checking in advance the opportunity to visit St. Mark's Cathedral, it is just a unique place both as a Temple for believers and as an ancient Historical one in the Gothic style.

Definitely need to go watch. Of course, it's better with a guide. A unique mishmash of eras, styles and decor

Venice is the most beautiful and unusual. I was expecting unpleasant odors, but no. We lived in the center near the Rialto and San Marco Bridges, and we also managed to live in the Arsenal. Crowds of tourists day and night. The houses are all in flowers, drowning in water, how do the 1st floors of the houses live, apparently in dampness.

A very interesting historical place. I recommend taking the elevator up to the observation deck and seeing a non-standard panarama. Of course, to visit such places with a guide or a local resident, you can specify a lot of new things, not what is written in the directory.

The beauty of Sabir fascinates with its archetypal structure.
It's nice to see what was built many centuries ago

What to write? There are the relics of the Apostle Mark. Let those who do not have enough of the sacred component write about antiquity and decoration.

The first place I went with my friend Sasha when I was in Venice. An impressive temple! It was founded in the IX century and functioned as the court chapel of the Venetian Doges. Inside, in addition to the relics of St. Mark, there are many valuables taken from Constantinople during the Crusades, including the "quadriga" - the famous 4 horses (now there are copies). The interior is very beautiful and breathes history. Most see!

The first impression of Venice was by no means friendly: a cold wind was blowing, the sun was hidden, leaden clouds covered the sky. Considering that we were dressed in summer, with bare legs that were already blue, it wasn't very fun at heart...We looked especially wonderful against the background of Chinese wrapped in warm scarves, dressed in warm windbreakers. The tour began with the Murano Glass factory. "Hooray!" I thought when it turned out that we could finally get warm indoors! In addition, there was a "live" fire in the room: the master blew a magic steed out of the glass before our eyes! Bravo! Alas, photos are forbidden here. But there is a free toilet and, most importantly, heat)) Next, we went along the tourist route to St. Mark's Square - he is always depicted with a lion, such a majestic and very endearing uncle :-) Surprisingly, upon arrival in Venice (around 10:00 a.m.), the tide began to rise, and we witnessed how water began to flow through the paving slabs. What a sight it was! In a matter of minutes, the main square of the city turned into a swimming pool! The Venetians have everything in their grasp on this matter: the policemen immediately built wooden scaffolding across the entire square, along which a stream of tourists immediately poured (it was somewhat reminiscent of the queue at Lenin's mausoleum in the 80s). For us, tourists, it was something like exotic, but for the locals it was a common thing. Those who were bolder walked straight through the water, wearing special boots, such as our fishermen's, so-called "swamp" ones. Someone was generally barefoot (but this is dangerous, since the water there is not even clean at all). Therefore (because of the large water), we could not have a cup of coffee at a table in St. Mark's Square, but we tasted the most delicious pizza! It's a miracle! From the heat, from the heat, straight from the oven: a thin crust and juicy filling with tomatoes, cheese, ham, mushrooms. 1/4 of this pizza cost 2.70 Euros. There is one piece of advice: try to turn off tourist routes when you want to have a snack, avoid well-trodden paths if you want to save money.
A photo session against the backdrop of the Venetian landscape, canals and magnificent buildings added even more positivity. Gondola and boat rides have brilliantly completed our tourist program. We didn't think about the cold anymore. Well-fed and, most importantly, inspired by all the beauty, we went to our next destination. Oh, Venetia, how beautiful you are!

To see it once in April-May (fewer people), have a snack with the food you brought with you and never come back here again.
You will get terribly tired, there is nowhere to sit, grab a litter so as not to sit on a stone.

It is better to visit in the morning before the influx of tourists from cruise ships, if there are large puddles on the square, then you can not go inside, the floor will already be flooded with water.
