A single downloadable chapter covering Venice, pulled from Lonely Planet's Cruise Ports Mediterranean Europe guidebook. It covers sights, activities, shopping, eating, drinking and nightlife, plus maps and how to get to and from the cruise port. It suits cruise passengers with a day or two in Venice who want a compact, port-focused guide rather than a full city book. Against a full Venice guidebook it is lighter and cheaper in scope, but it skips neighborhoods and planning detail beyond the port call.

This is the Venice, Italy chapter from Lonely Planet's Cruise Ports Mediterranean Europe guidebook. It is a PDF chapter.
The chapter covers Venice, a city of marble palaces built on a lagoon. It touches on the city's painting, baroque music, modern opera, spice-route cuisine and bohemian-chic fashions.
Highlights include the golden mosaics inside Basilica di San Marco and the boutique-lined backstreets leading to Museo Fortuny, the palace fashion house whose gowns freed women from corsets. It also points out Ponte dell'Accademia, a wooden bridge with views of the Grand Canal.
