    The Doge's Palace is located in St Mark's Square and is one of the most fascinating and culturally rich monuments in Venice. Having been the seat of political and administrative power of the Venice Republic from its birth to its end, the Palazzo Ducale is a statement to the splendour of the La Serenissima (Venice).

    An architectural fusion, this monument is a refreshing blend of contemporary and primaeval eras. It boasts an array of Renaissance masterpieces, grand staircases, opulent rooms and monumental entrances, all of which will leave you breathless. It houses the largest canvas in the world produced by the famous artist Tintoretto.

    Meet your guide at St Mark’s square in the designated spot and admire the marvels of Venetian architecture from the outside, revel in its history and then follow him into the opulent structure. Once you step in you are likely to be overwhelmed by the interiors adorned in murals, intricate carvings and lavish decor.

    Soak in the beauty of your surroundings and listen to stories of political happenings in Venice while you're here. The walls of the chambers hold stories the world has rarely heard of and these very walls are adorned with world-famous Renaissance masterworks making it a wholesome delight. Walk out to the open from here to the Bridge of Sighs to explore the New Prisons complex and end your tour back in St Mark’s Square from where you can visit other buildings of historical importance with the same ticket ( without the tour guide).
