Description
Each year, millions of visitors travel to Venice to admire the architectural marvels of this famed city. In this comprehensive volume, architect and critic Richard Goy offers a convenient and accessible guide to the city's piazzas, palazzos, basilicas and other architectural points of interest, as well as pertinent historical details regarding Venice's unique urban environment. Clearly laid out and fully illustrated in colour, this handbook is designed around a series of expertly planned walking tours that encompass not only the city's most admired architectural sites but also its lesser-known gems. The book is divided by district, each accompanied by a specially made map, and an introductory chapter explores the city's architectural history, urban design and building materials and techniques. Featuring a glossary of key terms and other useful reference materials, this book will appeal both to travellers who desire greater architectural context and analysis than a traditional guide may provide and to visitors looking to rediscover Venice's most enchanting sites. --Book Jacket.
