The Doge's Palace is one of Venice's most important symbols. For centuries, it represented the seat of Venetian political power. In its majestic rooms, the Duke and his Council controlled the fate of the Serenissima for centuries, surrounded by hundreds of masterpieces of painting.
Visiting its halls of power, golden staircases, and important paintings, we will have the opportunity to go back in time and breathe in the enchanting atmosphere of this place where Byzantine and Oriental architecture meet.
Inside the Palace we will admire some of the most famous works painted by Tintoretto, Veronese and other important artists.
Finally, we will once again feel the anguish of the prisoners, who after crossing the famous Bridge of Sighs entered the darkness of the prisons (famous for having hosted Giacomo Casanova).
St. Mark's Basilica:
St. Mark's Basilica could represent the place where Eastern and Western architecture intersect, as majestic in its exteriors as they reach the history it witnessed and represents.
