Everyone who has been or will be in Venice will definitely be impressed by this beautiful work of the architect Longela. Getting to her is very easy. On foot from Piazza San Marco, following the sign for the Accademia Bridge, or by vaporetto from Roma Station if you arrive by bus. A one-time ticket for 30 minutes is just enough to get to Santa Maria. Taking pictures inside is not allowed. A monk is strictly watching at the entrance. The inner large room is round with six naves. Beautiful Murano glass chandeliers, as well as altar pieces by Titian and one by Tintoretto.
