Venice
Venice rewards travellers who treat Castello as a working base during Biennale season: Giardini and Arsenale sit along the lagoon edge, with Campo della Tana linking the Arsenale gate to free collateral shows. Vaporetti beat luggage walks; buy ACTV passes if you will hop repeatedly. Book timed Biennale tickets online before you arrive, and leave Mondays for churches or islands when the exhibition venues are closed.
