St Mark’s Square
Overlooked by an enormous Bell Tower St Mark’s Square is
visited by 12 million vistors every year… Byron referred
to St Mark’s Square as “the greatest drawing room
in Europe”and Napoleon called it the finest square in Europe.
These days Piazza San Marco is a wonderful place to chill out
and watch the world go by whilst enjoying an overpriced cappuccino
or ice cream. St Marks is synomous with pigeons and one nearly
always seems to stray into your photos of St Marks. Indeed the
pigeons have become the symbol of this vibrant and romantic focal
point of Venetian life.
