While walking around San Marco during sunset time, together with thousands of other tourists, we could see one of the colorful sunsets I ever saw. The whole sky was orange, like the whole sky burns. It was awesome. I tried to capture the moment, but you cannot capture the whole beauty if this moment.
While waiting for the sunset at the grand canal in this city, my wife and I enjoyed the scenic view. If you visit this city, I can recommend to find a place near the water and just relax to let the wonderful views inspire you.
As the town is built on water, the main means of transportation is the water bus. There are many stations around the city and you simply wait there for the next water bus and jump on the bus. Even if you can walk the whole city it would be my advice to get this ticket.
