Introduction
The Government House is the residence of the Governor of the Republic of Venice, the home of the office and the court. It was the central institution of Venetian politics at the time. On the entire wall to the east of the second floor of the Grand Senate’s parliament hall is the “Paradise” painted by Tintoretto. Inside the gorgeous Governor's Mansion, there is a gothic cloister and an expensive golden ladder. The rooms on the second and third floors are decorated with Venetian paintings, the ceiling murals of the four foyer, the murals of the living room and the large conference halls lined with portraits of the Governors of the past.

The architectural features of the Doge's Palace are obviously medieval Gothic architecture, and it was once the most magnificent building in Venice. However, after several winds and rains, the current Doge’s Palace has evolved into a very interesting Venice Art Museum.
Beautiful palace with great views of the surrounding area. Book in advance or visit late in the day to avoid long lines.
The regular tour of the Doge’s Palace (the Palazzo Ducale) in Venice is extraordinary enough. The building is a quite remarkable example of Gothic civic architecture. Every stone, passageway and artwork evokes the power that the Serene Republic wielded over a millennium of unparalleled imperial power. But you might want to dig even deeper – to explore the hidden corners of the palace on the Itinerari Segreti del Palazzo Ducale (the secret tour of the Doge’s Palace).Get there early to book a ticket on the special touryou get to see areas and things most people dont know about! You also get to to the normal tour / walk around.On the tour you will get to see where Casanova was in-prisoned and where he made his escape from, the hidden ways behind the scenes ( and sometimes on top of them ! ), torture rooms, Your tour is likely to end at the Ponte dei Sospiri or Bridge of Sighs … the final walk of prisoners across the water to the ‘new prison’.
Grand and imperial palace is a palace builti Venetian Gothic style, and one of the main landmarks of the city of Venice, northern Italy. The palace was the residence of the Doge of Venice, the supreme authority of the Republic of Venice,opening as a museum in 1923.
While not as marvelous as some of the other palaces in Florence or Rome, definitely worth a visit in Venice. The adjoining prison and walking across the Bridge of Sighs is interesting to kids.
After having missed out on visiting the palace during my first couple of visits, finally made it inside. Sadly found it a great disappointment as there wasn't much to see inside.
