Venice Part 2

So these are more pictures of Venice outside of the square. I hope you enjoy.

If you ever go to Venice, I highly recommend wandering through the streets. They call it getting lost, but you can't really get completely lost as you will usually see some kind of sign directing you to either the main canal or the shore. I just don't remember how they are labeled, but you can figure it out.

This is the overhead view of where you'll "get lost."

Venice Part 1

I have so many great pictures of Venice that it was hard to pick and choose. So this first round will be of St. Mark's Square.

These two shots are of the St. Mark's Cathedral. I think someone famous is supposed to be buried there but I can't remember, nor do I care to look it up.

This is the other side of the square from the cathedral's view.

This is the bell tower there. Every famous square in Italy has a corresponding bell tower.

This is the view from the back of the square. You can see the bell tower close to the cathedral.

And this is the view of the square from the bell tower. You have to climb a couple of towers while you're in Italy. The view is always spectacular. More views from up here next time. Just not of the square.
