   Casa di Marco Polo

   Pass by

   Marco Polo was an Italian traveller, writer, ambassador and merchant. The report of his travels in the Far East is collected in the work Il Milione, a veritable geographical encyclopaedia that brings together the essential knowledge available in Europe at the end of the 13th century about Asia.

4. 4

   Basilica Dei Santi Giovanni E Paolo

   10min

   The basilica of Saints John and Paul is one of the most impressive medieval religious buildings in Venice, together with the basilica of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari. It is considered the pantheon of Venice due to the large number of Venetian doges and other important figures who have been buried there since the 13th century. It stands in the campo of the same name, in the Castello district. In September 1922 Pope Pius XI elevated it to the dignity of a minor basilica.

5. 5

   Campo Santa Maria Formosa

   10min

   Campo Santa Maria Formosa is a campo in Venice, located in the Castello district. It is one of the largest squares in the city: a total of nine calli and eleven bridges (some of which simply connect the entrances to the palaces) branch off from it. The name is due to the presence of the church of Santa Maria Formosa.
