Bridge of Sighs
AttractionVeniceAbout 15 minutes
The enclosed white bridge between the Doge's Palace and the prisons, seen from the waterfront bridge beside it, where a permanent scrum of people photograph it. Five minutes from outside; the inside is part of the palace visit, and the view out through its stone lattice is deliberately almost nothing.
