getting around .walking.p.le roma-strada nuova-s.marco

Once you have arrived at Piazzale Roma go towards the Canal Grande (1) and follow it by walking along Fondamenta della Croce and then Fondamenta S.Simeon Piccolo until you reach Ponte degli Scalzi (or della Stazione).
As soon as you have crossed this bridge turn right (2) and walk along Lista di Spagna which will bring you to Campo S.Geremia and Ponte delle Guglie.



From here you go straight on (3) along Rio Terà S.Leonardo, keep to the right for Campiello and the ponte dell'Anconetta until you come to Rio Terà della Maddalena (5).
Cross another bridge and you come to Strada Nuova after having passed campo S.Fosca with the statue of Paolo Sarpi.

From here you continue to go straight on and once you have crossed Campo S.Felice, (6) the Strada Nuova opens into campo Santi Apostoli.



You now have to turn right, cross the bridge and turn left, passing through the portico; then turn right into Calle Dolfin, Campiello Selvatico and Campiello Corner where you have to cross the bridge you see to your right.



Keep on going straight on along all the Salizzada S.Giovanni Grisostomo (with its homonymous church), Ponte dell'Olio (7), and the Salizada del Fontego dei Tedeschi until you come to Campo S.Bartolomeo (8) with the monument of Carlo Goldoni.
Continue straight on for another stretch along via 2 aprile and then before you come to campo S.Salvador (with its homonymous church), turn left into Mercerie S.Salvador.



Keep going in this direction until you reach Ponte dei Bareteri (13) and then mercerie S.Zulian (13) and the homonymous campo (with annexed church).

You are almost there and all streets lead to S.Marco but turn right and then left into Mercerie dell'Orologio (14) so you walk under the Torre dell'Orologio (Clock Tower) and have arrived in PIAZZA S.MARCO (15) with a beautiful view.

You have finally made it.
