Best Views of Venice
Written by Philippa Burne, UK, November 2011
Comment from Philippa Burne
Venice boasts some of the most spectacular sights in Italy. Here are my top 5 best places to get a good view of Venice.
1. Campanile: It’s the city’s tallest building at 325 ft (99m) and is slap bang in the middle of one of the greatest tourist precincts in the world. Happily, it has a lift. From up here you can see the whole lagoon over to the Lido, the lovely jumble of the city’s rooftops and on a clear day even the Dolomite mountains in the distance.
