Palazzetto Foscari is a Venetian Gothic palace, built in the second half of the fourteenth century, located in the Cannaregio district, overlooking the Ponte degli Scalzi.

Ponte degli Scalzi is one of the four bridges in Venice that cross the Canal Grande.
It is next to the Santa Lucia (Ferrovia) railway station and connects the sestieri of Santa Croce and Cannaregio. It is a stone arch bridge, completed in 1934, to replace an Austrian iron bridge.

Venice, also known as the “The Floating City” or “City of Canals” is one of Italy's most picturesque cities and a very popular destination for travel. With its winding canals and beautiful bridges, its striking architecture, secret gardens and incredibly romantic places, Venice has a lot to offer beyond all the tourist attractions known all over the world. Founded in the 5th century and spread over 118 small islands, the famous Italian City of Venice is one of the most visited cities in Italy. Venice is a city in northeastern Italy, built on a group of small islands, separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges. It is a major Italian port to the Adriatic Sea and the capital of both the Provincia di Venezia and the Regione di Veneto. Venice is unique environmentally, architecturally, and historically and therefore, the lagoon and a part of the city are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city was styled la Serenissima (“the most serene”) in the medieval Europe, when it was the greatest seaport and the commercial and cultural link to Asia. One of the world’s oldest tourist and cultural centres, Venice is renowned not only for its beauty but also for its Venetian glass produced in the Island of Murano and the lace produced in the Island of Burano.

Coming by train, you reach Venice’s central train station (Venezia Santa Lucia Railway Station), near the western end of the Grand Canal, which connects Venice with other Italian cities. Traveling by train from or to other cities in Italy is an easy and comfortable way, considering that Venezia Santa Lucia Railway Station is close to the city center. At the main exit of the Santa Lucia station, you will immediately find the vaporetto stop and Ponte degli Scalzi. At the second exit you find Ponte della Costituzione, opened to the public in 2008 to connect the station with the Piazzale Roma, the main bus station for Venice.

Grand Canal (Canal Grande) is the main waterway of Venice, following a natural channel that traces a reverse-S course from San Marco Basilica to Santa Chiara Church and divides the city into two parts. Grand Canal has an average depth of 5 metres, it is more than 3 km long and between 30 and 70 metres wide.
