San Marco

San Marco is the name of one of the six areas in Venice and embodies the heart and main place of the city. Tourists can find several sights in this area as, for instance, the San Marco Basilica or the Doge's Palace. San Marco's square is also directly located next to the water and offers opportunities for nice walks. Due to the high amount of tourists many hotels and banks as well as expensive shops can be found in this area. In summer it is very crowded. The area of San Marco also involves many churches, which can be visited as well. Public transport is easily accessible from San Marco square, so other places can easily be reached by waterbus, next to others.
