CHRISTMAS IN VENICE, BETWEEN LUXURY AND FUN

Visit the city on water during the holidays: a unique opportunity to appreciate even more homes and apartments for sale in Venice.

Apartments for sale Venice, old-time 'piani nobili' overlooking the canals, luxury homes that tell a story. Walking through the Venetian streets it is easy to daydream. Even more so when those panoramas are filled with snow and the sweet taste of Christmas.

If the snow does not come to visit us, however, there are still many reasons to enjoy the city in celebration.

LOSE BETWEEN THE MARKETS

At the foot of the Rialto bridge, in Campo San Bortolo, there is one of the best known and most visited in the city. This continues also in Ruga degli Oresi and along Strada Nova. There are miles of stalls, Santa Clauses, nativity scenes and sweets, an open air Toy Country where it is impossible not to smile.

VOLTAGE OVER THE ICE

Do you remember letting yourself slip on the ice between facades and medieval architecture? Here too, this can happen if you are in Venice and go to Campo San Polo where Venice on ice will be set up until February 25th. You can skate every day in rounds of about an hour and a half.

Take the opportunity to discover our luxury apartments for sale in Venice Campo San Polo. You will not regret it.

NOSE IN THE AIR FOR LUMINARIES

It starts from Piazza San Marco, where a thirteen-meter fir was lit, to Santa Maria del Giglio with a second, shining tree. This year also all the Mercerie up to San Salvador and Calle delle Tasse will be decorated so as to make the heart of Venice a single illuminated lounge.

THE CRIBS

In the churches and historic buildings of Venice you can see some of the most well-kept Italian cribs. Every year in the Basilica dei Frari the Franciscan fathers set up a mechanical nativity scene with lighting that changes according to the time of day

CHRISTMAS NIGHT IN SAN MARCO


We must arm ourselves with patience and come here even an hour earlier, but what a thrill the midnight celebration inside the Basilica with access from the Porta dei Fiori. You will be accompanied by music and choirs, a significant taste of the many concerts that can be heard throughout the Christmas period in the churches and symbolic places of the city.
