Venice Weather
Unlike many other popular tourist destinations, summer is actually considered one of the worst times to plan a trip to Venice.
It can get very hot and humid, so much so that the canals will smell bad and there can be an abundance of pesky flies.
In contrast, spring and fall are the best times to visit Venice as the temperature is next to perfect and there are less tourists cramming about.
Even still, if you can only find time to visit Venice in the summer, you will still not regret making the trip to this stunning city.
Remember, that Venice has no cars, thus there is far less smog than most other destinations.

Venice - General Information
Venice has been practically untouched in terms of change over the last 6 centuries and the definition of being a sanctuary located on a lagoon still rings as true as it ever did.
While there are still more tourists in the area as there are residents, and that leads to a bit of touristy chaos, there is still an array of romantic spots that can be sought out and found.

Venice is truly a standing monument that exemplifies the Renaissance glory days.
Despite any hostility it may have seen and the effects of time, there are a number of reasons why it is still one of the most sought after tourist destinations in the entire world.

Venice Guide
Venice is chock full of attractions to see and things to do no matter what time of year you decide to make the visit. It is best to plan well ahead and note all of the places you want to see before heading to the city in order to make the most of your perfect vacation. To help plan it for you, here are a few Venice attractions that are often considered a must by most people that have been here before.

St. Mark’s Campanile:
This monstrous bell tower is known for being one of the best symbols of Venice on the whole. It dates all the way back to the 9th century and was rebuilt back in 1912. Now there are five different bells that ring each hour and can be heard throughout all of Venice.
Canal Grande:
Venice has been noted as being the city of water, and Canal Grande is the most important waterway within it. The 4 kilometer canal stretches across the middle of the city and is close to the vast majority of attractions in the area.
Doge’s Palace:
Also known as the Palazzo Ducale, this Gothic Palace represents all that encompasses the City of Water. It gives tourists a glimpse into the power that was present in Venice in the 14th century when the city was at its peak. It was rebuilt a number of times during the middle Ages but still possesses the original grandeur that it was known for.
