    In fear of being “museumed out,” my wife and I walked away from the Campanile & Basilica until we stumbled upon a couple small parks featuring artwork and finally the Giardini della Biennale. The entrance fee is a bit bracing at 25 euro per person, and it isn’t in fact a garden but rather a collection of ecologically-themes artworks from countries around the world. We spent an enjoyable morning wandering from building to building finding education and inspiration along the way. Even the food at the museum bar/ristorante was good. Highly recommended.

    It is a simple park, but in Venice I really appreciated it as the city is crowded. Here you can sit in silence ( kind of) and without pressure.

    The European Cultural Center hosts a different once-every-two-years contemporary art exhibit and this one will run from April 23 to November 27, 2022. This is the 6th biennial presentation and it is titled: "Personal Structures - Reflections." The artists (of which there were 200 who submitted requests) come from all around the world.

    The meaning of "reflection" considers both the image and the thought behind the image; therefore it is both mental and visible. The goal for the artists was two-fold: the art should reflect awareness for what is to come an well as mirror the current environment. This is a pretty vague parameter (IMHO) but then, I am not an artist.

    "Contemporary" is the operative word' and these figures really border the abstract. The garden that hosts this exhibit is a delightful place to come and sit on a bench and enjoy the day.

    In a city with very few green spaces all should be appreciated. This is a nice park, surprisingly quiet and well maintained. If you need a corner for time out this is a good spot.

    Located adjacent to Campo San Geremia, this large park provides a nice respite from the crowds along the main drag. There are a couple of entrances but once inside, there are benches in which to rest and specific areas for dogs to play and even a large playground for children.

    An amazing tour of this palace. The Countess was so warm and friendly. She was very down to earth and a humble lady. I highly recommend this tour.

    The store is quite pretty and full of history specially with the acqua di Melissa and the properties of this product from 1700. They also have other natural based products.

    Well worth visiting not only for its temporary exhibits ("Panoramic Venice" was very interesting), but also for its architecture and Scarpa's partial renovation: he articulated it around themes linked to the venetian tradition: his bridge is the lightest held in the city; he kept the water entering into the building, the Portego, and the simple and serene garden.

    This garden was smaller than I anticipated but given the most limited 'green space' on the island, I guess it has a large appeal.
    The building is a Grand Palazzo & was impressive as it fronted the Grand Canal, with a side entrance also off a small canal ... maybe the tradesman's entrance?
    In the ground floor foyer is an old Gondola that also had the Funeral Hood which was typical of their original use.

    It is hard to find the entrance for this garden. It is not far from Sta. Stae vaporetto station. You just need to go to the south of the station and turn right to a narrow street Calle Tron, leading to a side entrance of Ca Tron. It has huge stone head of a man above the entrance. Garden has two parts, one is a paved part with a well near the building and second a meadow with interesting old trees as palm trees and some bushes.
