Casa
Cosmo is located in a typical Venetian calle, Calle di mezzo,
very centrally situated but off the crowdiest paths where
the only sound is the echo of the rustling which enshrouds
Venice, composed of the sound of voices and steps. 
Saint
Mark's Basilica: beautiful Venetian church with 5 domes
looks like the ancient church of Costantinopoli. It was embellished
during the early centuries of the last millennium and particulary
in the thirtheenth century when Venice dominated Mediterranean
culture and economy. The church, built to represent the power
of Serenissima, is externally embellished with marble, mosaics
and bas-relief: all maded with precious materials came from
Bisanzio, Aquileia and Ravenna. Internally, the church has a
Greek cross plan with domes substained by big columns. 
Rialto
Bridge: 'Till thirteenth century
Venice was built on a groups of islands separated by channels
and to get on the other side were laid down wood boards. Later
many bridges were built in Venice but no one of them joining
the Gran Canal's banks. 
Ca'
D'Oro: Once upon the time was considered one of the most
sumptuous buildings of Venice for the beautiful colours of its
facade, Ca' D'oro knew an unlucky period becouse of the several
restorations made during five centuries of history, till baron
Giorgio Franchetti bought it at the end of XIX century to create
an art gallery. Inside it's possible to admire masterpieces
by Mantegna, Diana and Carpaccio. Besides there are many paintings
of Flemish school and what remain of the decorations that one
time made beautiful the facades of the buildings near the "Canal
Grande" (main channel of Venice).
