The perfect description of Piazza San Marco is the place of change and variety. You can experience so many things in this 175m long place. The shows, performances and the feeling of your surroundings changes from hour to hour and from season to season.

We spent some quality time there, watching other people, performers, birds flying about and we enjoyed every minute of it.
