If you think about Venice, the first thing coming up in your mind is water and stone. However, the city also offers hundreds of hidden gardens waiting to be discovered by you. Although the environment is difficult, some of the gardens are the most magnificent ones in the world due to their combination of flowers, plants, rocks and water.
One of the gardens, the Giardinett Reali, which is located between St. Mark’s Square and the lagoon, is open to the public without any admission charge. You will see pebbled paths, splashes of colour, you will smell heavenly fragrances and high trees and greenery will protect you from
the sun. After leaving the garden, you should discover the baroque church Santa Maria della Salute which was completed in 1689.
