In fact, as night falls, the city becomes even more beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>Once dusk has fallen, darkness envelops the streets, which bask in the faint light spilling from the street lamps and windows.<\/p>\n<p>Hurried passers-by bustle towards their destination, momentarily breaking the silence with the patter of their steps, while awestruck tourists wander past, gazing open-mouthed and struggling to believe they are in the same place that, during the day, was teeming with people.<\/p>\n<p>On one of my walks, I saw a young couple with a lost look about them, bowled over by the charm of the city by night, holding each other&#8217;s hand and taking a seat on some steps to enjoy the secretive intimacy offered by the silence.<\/p>\n<p>The silence of Venice by night is a different kind of silence; there is no road noise, making it much quieter than any other city.<\/p>\n<p>A wander through Venice&#8217;s <em>calli <\/em>and <em>campielli<\/em> will reveal some beautiful little corners, but you can enjoy a wonderful view of it all from a water bus. Climb aboard at the Rialto stop, heading towards St Mark&#8217;s Square and, as the majestic Rialto Bridge vanishes behind you, admire the romantic, seductive beauty of the city opening up before your eyes.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/volare.volotea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/photo-212-300x200.jpg?ssl=1\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7103\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/volare.volotea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/photo-212.jpg?resize=300%2C200&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Dreamy <em><a href=\"https:\/\/venicewiki.org\/wiki\/I_Palazzi_in_Canal_Grande\" target=\"_blank\">palazzi line the Grand Canal,<\/a><\/em> still bearing the names of the famous families that made Venice great all those years ago. The names of doges, mercenary leaders and ship&#8217;s captains sit alongside those of the famous businessmen who helped build the beauty we see today.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll spot Ca\u2019 Farsetti, Ca\u2019 Loredan, and the Grimani, Contarini, Tiepolo, Querini, Barbarigo, Pisani and Corner palaces.<\/p>\n<p>At the so-called <em>volta de canal<\/em>, where the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grand_Canal_(Venice)\" target=\"_blank\">Grand Canal<\/a> takes an almost right-angled turn, it is bordered by the imposing Ca\u2019 Foscari followed by Ca\u2019 Rezzonic, opposite the Palazzo Grassi.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve passed the Ponte dell&#8217;Accademia, you&#8217;ll come across the unfinished Ca\u2019 Venier dei Leoni followed by the Gothic Ca\u2019 Dario. And rising above it is the Chiesa della Salute, which provides a contrast with the light, Gothic elegance of the Palazzo Contarini Fasan, known as the Palace of Desdemona, on the opposite bank.<\/p>\n<p>After St Mark&#8217;s basin you&#8217;ll reach the S. Zaccaria stop. With your feet back on dry land, take in the view of the square and the Doge&#8217;s Palace, then wander through the almost deserted space, where a lone stall is still selling visitors souvenirs of the city.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/volare.volotea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/photo-39-300x200.jpg?ssl=1\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7104\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/volare.volotea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/photo-39.jpg?resize=300%2C200&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A walk through the city as it sleeps, while silence is only broken by unusual odd passers-by.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":7102,"template":"","topics":[2534],"destination":[2831],"class_list":["post-7762","inspiracion","type-inspiracion","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","topics-lifestyle-culture","destination-venice"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 -
