Doge's Palace served as both the residence of Venice’s Doge and the seat of government for centuries, showcasing Gothic architectural brilliance intertwined with rich history dating back to around 1340.

The Rialto Bridge stands proudly over the Grand Canal, having been completed in 1591 after several iterations throughout history; it's one of Venice's most iconic symbols today.
