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? In general, Venice cannot be called the best place for shopping in Italy; there are cities that are much more attractive for this purpose. But if you are here, then BlogoItaliano tried to find places that are definitely useful to you.

Shopping areas in Venice

In the historical part of Venice, there are mostly single boutiques, family shops and workshop shops. Large shopping centers and outlets are located outside the archipelago - on the mainland. Therefore, if you are very serious about shopping in Venice, it is better to go there.

The focus of outlets of all stripes and calibers in old Venice is the so-called Mercury district, which stretches from Piazza San Marco to the Rialto Bridge. Here you can find literally everything: from clothes and shoes to interior items and unique designer products. Well, there’s nothing to even say about souvenirs: they are just mountains here.
