From Venice's famed canals to architectural wonders that surround San Marco square, Venice deserves its fame. While planning your perfect Venice tour, you may want to learn some brief info about main attractions, monuments, and things to do during one of your Venice tours: The most impressive secular building in Venice is by all means the Doge's Palace (Palazzo Ducale). This palace served as the senate house, administrative center, hall of justice, public archive and prison up until the fall of the Venetian Republic in 1797. Blending the architectural styles of East and West, Venice's magnificent Saint Mark's Basilica (Basilica di San Marco) was consecrated in 832 AD as an ecclesiastical building to house the remains of St. Mark. Grand Canal, Venice's main water thoroughfare, lined with great Renaissance palaces, is a colorful and busy spectacle of gondolas and vaporetti. Venice's Piazza San Marco (St. Mark's Square), is undoubtedly the most photographed and famous plaza in Europe. St. Mark's is in the heart of the city, surrounded by chic sidewalk cafes and boutiques. Guggenheim Museum of Venice (Peggy Guggenheim Collection) is a satellite gallery of the famous Guggenheim in New York, and occupies the 17th-century Customs House in Venice, featuring modern and contemporary works of art. Academy Gallery (Gallerie dell'Accademia), Venice's most important and prestigious art gallery, features an impressive collection of Venetian paintings and works by such artists as Bellini, Titian and Mantegna.
