In addition to being the only square in Venice, there is also the bell tower of St. Mark (96 meters high). However, the main attraction can be called pigeons - its old inhabitants. They serve as the main entertainment for tourists; few of the guests of the city leave without a photograph with a dove in their hand. The pigeons of St. Mark's Square have already become so accustomed to people that they have become completely tame.

Bridges in Venice have an important place in the architecture of the city. There are a total of 354 bridges in Venice. These include the Bridge of the Constitution, the Sighs, the Straw Bridge, etc. I would like to pay special attention to the Rialto Bridge. This bridge can be safely called one of the symbols of Venice. 12 thousand piles were driven into its foundation. The highest point of the bridge is located at a height of 7.5 meters. Since the last time the bridge was repaired about 30 years ago, now it is partially under restoration, but it continues to work, and every day it is visited by crowds of tourists.
