Venice is known as "City of Water" in the sense that its urban fabric is not only crossed by waterways, but it is also completely surrounded by water. The city's shape can be compared to a big fish, characterised by two characteristic and unique transport systems - waterways and routes accessible only on foot. In this environment, unique in the world, public transport is guaranteed by a network of waterways which develop in, cross through or circumnavigate Venice to reach the most distant points: the islands in the lagoon.
Perhaps not everyone knows that the difference between right berthing and left berthing is established with your back to the water. |

CITY CENTER LINES
These are the lines which crisscross the "heart" of the city, exploiting the two largest inner canals, the Canal Grande, probably the world's most famous canal, and the Giudecca Canal, large and deep enough to allow even the arrival of cruise ships.
The city centre lines connect a number of access points such as Tronchetto, Piazzale Roma and the railway station with the Venice of shops, monuments and museums, passing through the San Marco Basin as far as Lido di Venezia, famous for the beauty of its beaches and its nature reserves.
The new line 3 is dedicated to holders of Abbonamento and CartaVenezia, make the path Piazzale Roma - San Marco. |
