Five minutes from Piazzale Roma and the train station, at Ca' Barba Venetian life opens up before you: from the morning coffee at the famous patisserie below the apartment to the evening aperitif - the classic "spritz" - in one of the many bars of Campo Santa Margherita. In the nearby neighborhood, there are plenty of shops to buy the basics or indulge your whims.
 
The area is rich in Art History: the Accademia Gallery; the Frari Basilica which boasts works by Titian and Bellini; the Scuola Grande di San Rocco with its Tintoretto decoration; the magnificent 18th century Ca' Rezzonico rising from the Grand Canal, with its masterpieces by Tiepolo, Guardi and Canaletto.
 
The Dorsoduro Area has numerous charming areas to visit and stroll around; the Square of San Trovaso is one of the most delightful.

Here one can still witness the traditional art of gondola building.
