Next to the Basilica and Campanile, Doge’s Palace, located in St. Mark’s Square, is one of The city’s most renowned buildings. Doge’s Palace has a truly ethereal appearance when viewed from the Venetian Lagoon. It seems to be floating atop the water.
Looking out over the canals, this impressive palace is quite stunning. Its facade is highlighted by an ornate, white stone arch design.
