The North East Italy / Veneto region
Venice is the most important city in Veneto, that is a very rich and original land , where you can find all kinds of landscape as beautiful lakes, mountains, a sea with beautiful beaches, important rivers that made the land productive, very interesting cities to visit and warming and exuberant persons as Goethe could see when he arrived in Verona. The so called Veneto is the result of past glories of the Serenissima. We have to recall that The Republic of Venice started to expand his domains in the mainland with the conquer of Treviso in 1339 and then with the conquer of the other cities like Padova and Verona 1405) So that the major cities of Veneto Treviso, Verona, Vicenza, Belluno, Rovigo are jewel cases that preserve precious historical and artistic relics and alls embellished with the enduring stamp of the Serenissima Republicof Venice. Verona Its symbolic monument is the Arena, the amphitheatre with almost 2000 years of history. While the palaces and courtyards are connected to the mythical Romeo and Juliet, Verona continues to enchant the whole world
Vicenza It has been included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1994. The splendour of Vicenza lies in the theatricality of its works by its celebrated adopted son, Andrea Palladio. The sensual colours of the Berici Hills act as the backdrop. Treviso Behind the heavy gates of villas and palaces, under the porticos and in the gardens, here there is a sense of distinction and refinement of Treviso, famous for the frescoed houses that we can still see walking in the streets and for his good food and wine. Furthermore A Prosecco and culture tour will give you the opportunity of discovering the Prosecco hills ( Santo Stefano and Guia near Valdobbiadene )dotted with enchanting abbeysof the 14 century and old churches that adorn this area of incomparable beauty where you will be surrounded by vineyards. guito To drink the most famous Prosecco wine (spento o frizzante also sparkling or not wine) in the world.
Rovigo The waters of the rivers Po and Adige almost embrace each other while the surreal atmosphere of the nearby Delta creates a quiet but classic character. This is Rovigo, the smallest province in Veneto at the heart of the Padana plateau
Padua An elegant city with a discreet charm. One of the most significant attractions is the Basilica of St. Anthony, but Padua's artistic and cultural heritage can be discovered in every corner of the historical centre
Belluno The Celts called it "belo-dunum", the splendid city. Belluno is the gate into the magical world of the Dolomites, the mountains that have bewitched and inspired many artists as first of all Tiziano Vecellio the great painter of the 16 th century that was born in Pieve di Cadore in 1489-90 and died in Venice in 1576 . Nowadays you can visit his home ( museum) in Pieve di Cadore. The Venetian coastline Every year there are a million tourists who choose to spend their holidays on Venetian beaches. The beaches are long and wide, gently sloping down to the sea. All this guarantees relaxation and entertainment
The Mountains It is easy to fall in love with our mountains. In the winter, they are a skier's paradise with hundreds of kilometres of slopes for long-distance and downhill skiing. In the summer, the views are the stuff of dreams, making your holiday unforgettable. The most famous place to visit is Cortina D'Ampezzo.
The Venetian spas Distance yourself from stress, cure the body and recover the perfect physical form as well as treating yourself a little. Total wellbeing is available in all Venetian thermal spas. Each has its own seductive beauty
The lakes Paradise for sailing and windsurfing, paragliding and mountain biking, the Venetian lakes also offer interesting scenery and historical and cultural attractions The parks and the Po Delta From the mountains to the sea, Veneto boasts six protected nature areas. Lesser known than the more visited tourist destinations, these environments continue to preserve natural wildlife. To be enjoyed in all its peacefulness
Venice and its islands: It is a magic city that ispired a lot of painters for its lighting effects , here all is quiet and the life goes slowly . Venice must be discovered on foot during the day or by night , perhaps by losing oneself in the magical labyrinth created by lanes, small and large squares or taking a gondola to discover hidden misterious canals too.
Venice / Central Venice area
Venezia ( Veni etiam means come back again) is a magic city, that past times attracted and attract nowadays people of all the world for its originality that we can notice in the nature of its location ( the lagoon) and its characteristic shape that make this city unique in the world. In fact Venice is composed by hundred of islands connected by about 400 bridges and this terrotory is divided in 6 district (areas) called sestieri as the so called Sestiere di Castello, di Cannaregio, Dorsoduro, San Marco, San Polo e Santa Croce. Venice lives on the sea, on the lagoon that has its influence on the life of the citizens. In Venice people can walk everywhere ( you don't need your own boat ) crossing the bridges and geting lost in the labyrinth of many narrow streets ( calli) Venice is a magic city not only to visit some day , but to discover in all his parts : streets, canals, monuments, buildings ,people, traditions.and foods .You can undersand Venice only living in it and experience the real Venetian life. The Castello district is one of the most densely populated area in Venice , it is a little away from touristic route like San Marco or Rialto, and the main road Via Garibaldi , where Ca' delle Ancore Apartment is located, is not a touristic area. The Via Garibaldi is a little picturesque suburb, village (in the city) with all kinds of shops and people know each other and can communicate to each other, it still survives a relationship between persons.... Our guests like this area for this reason as you cannot find this relationship between people in other big cities and even in other part more touristic of Venice.
In Venice Festivals and celebrations have been part of Venetian life since the earlier days of the Republic to bolster the power and prestige of the Repubblic of Venice as the famous Regata Storica that takes place nowadays every year in September ( first Sunday in September ) to recall glorious past times. It is the biggest of the water festivals that beginning with a superbly costumed procession of ornate and historic boas down the Grand Canal is followed by 4 races: young rowers, women races, canoe like boats caorline races and gondolini races. The Redentore festival celebrates the deliverance of the city from the plague of 1575 ( Tiziano painter died during it) , when the church of Redentre was built on Giudecca island.There is a pilgrimage to this church and a nighty party in the lagoon waiting fireworks ( Third weekend of July).
The Carnival is another important event in Venice. People of every part of the world come in Venice to experience the ancient tradition of using masks, beautiful costumes and funs of past times when it was the last chance for fun and gams before the long and penitential weeks leading up to Easter. . In September the International Film Festival takes place on the Lido ( near Venice . It is famous for his beautiful beaches too ) It is the highlight of the year with stars and directors bringing glamour to the city.. The International Biennale Exhibition of Modern Art takes place from June to November in Castello district inside the Giardini Biennale and inside the Shipyards ( Arsenale Corderie).
How to get there
My suggestion to make Ca' Alexander and Ca’ delle Ancore easier to find.
From APT Marco Polo you can take a watertaxi to Venice and stop at Arsenale, or from the airport the bus number 5 to Piazzale Roma and then vaporetto ( public boat) number 61 or 51 and get off at Giardini –Biennale. Another possibility is to take the big shuttle boat ALILAGUNA to Venice and get off at ARSENALE. It takes about 1 hour. From here turn right and cross 2 bridges you reach Via Garibaldi, our building is located a little way up on the left under a big flag hanging between two pharmacies, entrance down narrow alley just past the flag, the first door on left ring bell Ca' Alexander. If you do not find the way please call us . From Venice Station S. Lucia you can take public boat (vaporetto) number 51 and get off at Giardini- Biennale stop. From Venice Piazzale Roma you can take vaporetto number 51 or 61 and get off at Giardini Biennale stop. From APT Ttreviso you take shuttle bus to Venezia (you will arrive at Piazzale Roma bus terminal). Then from here you look for vaporetto ( pubblic boats) departure and take number 51 or 61 and stop at Giardini Biennale. Crossed the Viale Garibaldi you find Via Garibaldi, we are at the left side, red building with flag of Venice. Entrance below the flag passing through a narrow street , ring at the first door Ca’ Alexander.

Guestbook
The apartment is beautiful , very clean and full of comforts. nice view from the balcony. The apartment is located in a characteristic area. full of shops and open space market.
We were very positively impressed with Ca'Alexander. We stayed in their apartment, Ca' Delle Ancore ,which is up the road. Conceptually, the only thing that is important to point out is that (at least if you stay in the apt) this is NOT a B&B but a self catering apartment. That said, it is top class, newly renovated, spotless, and all kitchen utensils/equipment top quality. The bedroom is spacious, linen high quality, and high standard. The family that runs it is very nice and helpful, and provides the essentials on day of arrical (milk, coffee, sugar, etc). The area (close to Arsenale and Biennale) is great, the street is nice with good restaurants, and 15 minute walk from St. Marks. The Apt itself is completely quiet, with AIR CONDITION, but we just kept the windows open. We know where we'll book when we're back! Guest name: AW, Ireland Rating 9.5
Average rating: 10.0 Guest type: Young couple stayed in Mar 2008 We had a great time and was surprised by the quality of the room...well suite really...we were given. Great experience and great memories! Guest name: PC, USA
Average rating: 10.0 Guest type: Young couple stayed in Apr 2008 Me and partner visited Venice for a short romantic break. We were extremely pleased with Ca'Alexander and the friendliness of the staff. Ca'Alexander is located in a quiet part of Venice, Castello, which is a short "vaporetto" stop from main attractions such as St Marks Square and Rialto bridge. I would recommend this to couples who would like a quiet, romantic break in Venice. Excellent owners - could not do enough to welcome us to Venice.
