5/5
The regular tour of the Doge’s Palace (the Palazzo Ducale) in Venice is extraordinary enough. The building is a quite remarkable example of Gothic civic architecture. Every stone, passageway and artwork evokes the power that the Serene Republic wielded over a millennium of unparalleled imperial power. But you might want to dig even deeper – to explore the hidden corners of the palace on the Itinerari Segreti del Palazzo Ducale (the secret tour of the Doge’s Palace).Get there early to book a ticket on the special touryou get to see areas and things most people dont know about! You also get to to the normal tour / walk around.On the tour you will get to see where Casanova was in-prisoned and where he made his escape from, the hidden ways behind the scenes ( and sometimes on top of them ! ), torture rooms, Your tour is likely to end at the Ponte dei Sospiri or Bridge of Sighs … the final walk of prisoners across the water to the ‘new prison’.

    Highly recommended! It was a hot day and it was worth skipping the long queue. You can visit in the morning if you can, because the palace has no air conditioning, absolutely visual shock! The photos don’t show it well.

    On the left side of Venice's St. Mark's Square, next to the church. The place where the governor works is magnificently decorated, with many paintings and statues on the dome. Particularly interested is the prison at that time, there is a large prison, all visited one by one. The prison is connected to the sigh bridge, walking in the sigh bridge, and it is also the origin of the sigh bridge. However, I personally feel that the price is not high. The sculptures and buildings in Italy are similar. There is no need to buy such expensive tickets and take the time to enjoy the Governor's Mansion.

    Recommend visiting with audio guide. Interesting place where you can see the palace and the cell where Casanova was once prisoned.
