While an array of events and nightlife options makes the city attractive to a younger party crowd, the daytime pleasures should not be overlooked, and there’s no shortage of things to do in Venice regardless of the time.
The maze of streets and canals are a pleasure to wander, whether it’s merely to enjoy the stunning architecture, ogle the plazas and landmarks, or laze about in a waterfront park.
A gondola ride on the Grand Canal is one of the signature things to do for tourists, but just chilling outdoors at one of the endless cafés and watching the boats go by is sometimes even better.
Venice is also known for its shopping, especially in and around Piazza San Marco where everything from high-end fashion boutiques to small stores selling Venetian glass handicrafts line the picturesque streets.
