The question of where to go in Venice on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore usually does not arise. Its main attraction is the church of the same name. Back in the 10th century, the island became the property of the Benedictines, they built a temple and a monastery here, which were destroyed by an earthquake in the 13th century. And only by the beginning of the 16th century a new church built in the Renaissance style appeared, it is still on the island. When visiting, you should definitely look at the interior walls that adorn the works of Tintoretto, in particular, The Last Supper and Manna from Heaven.

Everyone who has been to the "city on the water" has seen it. Because visiting Venice and not looking at St. The brand where it is located is impossible. The history of the appearance of the temple is rather sad. In the 17th century, a plague raged in the city, the epidemic was so strong that it claimed the lives of a third of the Venetians, it was in gratitude to the Lord for delivering Venice from this scourge that the church was erected. The cathedral was under construction for almost 50 years.

A very original example of church architecture, which does not prevent it from being one of the main attractions of Venice. Briefly describe the cathedral is very difficult - it has a rich and unusual history. First of all, the main style of the cathedral, Byzantine, is unusual for Western Europe. But due to the fact that Venice has always been an open trading city, the main word in the description of the main Venetian cathedral is eclecticism

The largest and most beautiful canal in the city. We can say its central avenue, the length of which is 4 km. When viewed from a pleasure boat, truly postcard views open - colorful mansions, solemn palazzos, beautiful cathedrals. And the views of the canal, which runs through the whole city, are also very picturesque.
