St Mark's Campanile Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
The Bell Tower of San Marco belongs to the Basilica of San Marco. As the beacon of the city on the lagoon, the Bell Tower has long been regarded by the Venetians as an indisputable landmark of Venice, and its status in Venice is even more than the Basilica of San Marco itself.

Very nice place, this one is beautiful too.

Wait for the Bell Tower of San Marco to overlook Venice. The photos show Venice from different directions in the southeast and northwest. Venice is also a narrow street with dense houses and inches of gold. There was a show downstairs that day, so it was on the stage.
The tall structure of the St. Mark's Bell Tower is simple, the lower half is a huge column of bricks, each side is 12 meters long, 50 meters high; the upper is the arched bell tower, a total of 5 bells, the arched bell tower is above the square building, the exterior wall is decorated by the lion and Venice goddess of justice. You can take the elevator up to overlook this square, but the team is really long ～～
