Here, all the vehicles we are used to seeing in daily life, such as police cars, ambulances, garbage trucks, municipal buses, etc., have been replaced by boats, as the city is free of motor vehicles. Walking from the waterfront of the slaves to San Marco Square, you can see the Venice prison and the “Ponte dei Sospiri” Bridge of Sighs connecting the prison and the Doge’s Palace, San Giorgio Island directly opposite the bridge, the twin columns called the city’s entrance gate in front of the main facade of the Doge’s Palace, and the statues symbolizing Venice on these columns. The square where St. Mark’s Basilica is located was called “the most beautiful square in the world” by Napoleon. Although the construction of the cathedral was completed in the 9th century, it took until the 17th century to reach its present form. The 4 bronze horses you will see on the main facade were brought from Istanbul during the return of the Second Crusades.
