Traveling to Venice, Italy can be a truly amazing trip to go on. There are many different things that you can do while traveling through Venice. Whether you are looking to get involved with some outdoor sports, experience the nature, history or culture, or venture into the arts and entertainment, there is always something to see and do in Venice.

One of the very first things that everyone should do when traveling to Venice is take the time to get lost in Venice. I know this sounds weird because you are specifically getting lost, but you should. There is much to see in Venice, and walking around with no set direction or destination can allow you to see so much more. You can see things that many tourists may have never experienced before and avoid all the crowds of tourists that seem to hit up all the hot spots right away.

A must see, is St. Mark's Basilica. This is one of Italy's most elegant churches throughout with the large domes and marble pillars outside and then floor to ceiling mosaics in the interior. There are three museums located inside the Basilica. These each have their own admission fees. Plan on experiencing all three before you leave Venice. Each museum is different and has its own amazing beauties.

Just about everyone who travels to Venice is bound to go to St. Mark's Square at some point. One of the best times of day to really see and experience St. Mark's Square is early morning or evening. This will help you avoid all the tourists and see all the amazing architectures that St. Mark's has to offer. With Venice not being much of a "night out on the town" kind of place, there are not many people out at night, which is why it's the perfect time to go experience the Square.

Venice is full of many places to see and experience. You won't find yourself getting bored at any point with the vast amount of things to do. If you are planning on traveling to Venice then make sure you experience everything you can, whether it is a tour of the Doge's Palace, taking an elevator to the top of the Campanile, wandering through the streets of Burano Island, hiking through Torcello Island, or window shopping at the Rialto Market, there is always something to do.
