Admire the Torre dell’Orologio and observe one of Europe’s oldest mechanical clocks marking the passage of Venetian history. Cross the Rialto Bridge and reflect on Renaissance engineering that supported global trade. Conclude at Santa Maria della Salute where Baroque architecture honors resilience and faith.
