The romantic city of Venice is located in the Veneto region of Italy — one of the northernmost states.

One of the most famous areas of the city is the world-renowned Grand Canal thoroughfare, which was a major centre of the Renaissance. Another unmistakable area is the central square in Venice, called the Piazza San Marco with a range of Byzantine mosaics, the Campanile bell and, of course, the stunning St. Mark’s Basilica.
