More than just a tour: St. Mark's Basilica Venice

A few days ago I published my visit to this beautiful city, Memories of a visit to Venice, as promised I now bring you the rest of the tour of the iconic and renowned Basica de San Marcos.

After we arrived at St. Mark's Square, its majesty speaks for itself.

Most of the people in St. Mark's Square, were just going to visit the Basilica and others were just enjoying the people walking around in costume.

The tour is enjoyed from the entrance, the imposing structure and not to mention the architecture of the basilica offers locals and visitors alike an unforgettable experience.

Every detail, the floor, the walls and everything in it is fascinating, once inside I couldn't decide what to photograph, quite a difficult decision.

The horses of San Marcos, located on the terrace of the Basilica, whose history harbours some uncertainty as to when they were created, including mention that it may have been BC.

The visit to the high altar is indescribable, being in this place is definitely an experience that stays in our minds forever.

The marble sculptures and the meaning behind each of them contain much of the history of Venice and its culture.

In the Museum of St. Mark's Cathedral we enjoyed the original sculptures of the Four Horses of St. Mark's, truly imposing and fascinating sculptures.

And to end my post, I leave you with one of my favourite images, which, although it does not show the full majesty of this cathedral, can serve as an invitation to experience this unprecedented adventure.

I hope you enjoyed this tour full of history and culture.
