Large and leafy public parks are a rarity in Venice
so this is a unique opportunity to relax in the sunshine with a good book, plenty of room to yourself, and perhaps a glass of prosecco. You are still in Venice, after all.
On the nearby Via Giuseppe Garibaldi, a road named after one of the founders of modern Italy, you will find charming independent shops and bacari, Venetian wine bars where you can eat cicchetti, the city’s answer to tapas.
