Secret Venice: walking tour in the Castello district
Discovering the Castello district and an unusual Venetian bookshop
Discover the fascinating city of Venice from a perspective much different from that of mass tourism, far from the most popular itineraries. Walk in the lesser-known areas of the city, accompanied by an expert guide to capture unprecedented glimpses of the landscape. Admire, in the Castello district, Palazzo Grimani, residence of Antonio Grimani, elected doge in 1521. Continue towards Campo Santa Maria Formosa to admire the church of the same name, ancient noble palaces, calli and bridges. Finally reach the very particular Acqua Alta bookshop, which displays the goods in gondolas, bathtubs and raised shelves to protect them from the tide. An experience that combines architecture and literature.
