We find the Rialto Bridge which spans the Grand Canal and is topped with market stalls in the centre plus packed with jostling crowds. The bridge offers a great viewpoint on the external balustraded footpath for watching the busy boat traffic on the Grand Canal where gondolas, power boats and vaporettis seem to come close to collision but, we assume, have an unspoken rule of navigation. (Note from the photographer: “almost too busy to photograph - both the crowds and boats!!”)
Cafes are busy all day from the prime waterfront locations to the narrow lanes where tables and chairs are laid out along one wall and pedestrians squeeze past.
