Standing at 98.6 meters, the Campanile di San Marco is an iconic symbol of Venice and offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and lagoon, making it a prime spot for photo-travelers. Originally built as a lighthouse for sailors, it features a red brick design with a pyramid-shaped spire topped by a golden weathervane depicting Archangel Gabriel. To capture its golden hue reflected on the Grand Canal, visit during sunrise or sunset. Note the unique 'foghorn' bells—capturing their hourly chimes enhances the authentic Venetian atmosphere in your shots. Be prepared for seasonal crowds, and consider visiting in the early morning for fewer people and softer light.
