The great Basilica of St. Mark stands beside the Doge’s Palace, and overlooking both is the tall Campanile. Gondolas congregate at the end of the plaza in the Grand Canal
Amalfi Coast
One of the most popular holiday destinations which touches the mediterranean just south of Naples. Streets are mostly stairways with houses glued to cliffs. Flowers bloom everywhere, and below the towns are beaches caught in coves of emerald water. The Amalfi Drive, along the southern coast, is one of the world’s great scenic routes. This place is picture perfect and will leave you speechless and full of the best memories
