Shopping in Venice: shops, markets, outlets

As in any significant city in Italy, the streets of Venice are full of shop signs, and luring travelers inside. And how can one resist here, when sparkling jewelry, masks, shoes and impeccably dressed mannequins flaunt on each shop window?

Italy for everyone

Church of Santa Maria in Transportina

The church of Santa Maria in Transportina was built on the site of the pyramid, which in the Middle Ages was considered the mausoleum of the founder of Rome, Romulus. The pyramid was demolished at the insistence of Pope Alexander VI, and in its place, at the end of the 15th century, the first gunners church was erected. The temple did not last long. Literally a few decades later it was dismantled so as not to block the shelling from the side of the castle of the Holy Angel.
