Basilica di San Marco

The Basilica of San Marco is Venice’s jewel in the crown. The cathedral evokes the blending of East and West that is at the heart of the Venetian character. More oriental than European, the architecture, the decoration, and the atmosphere of ancient sanctity span both the centuries and the styles of Mediterranean civilization.A visit to the terrace of St. Mark’s Basilica offers a breathtaking perspective over Piazza San Marco and the Venetian lagoon. From here, you can admire the intricate façade up close, including the famous bronze horses of St. Mark, once looted from Constantinople. The terrace provides a rare opportunity to step outside and experience the grandeur of Venice from above, making it one of the most memorable highlights of the basilica.
