College Bridge:

The College Bridge is one of the four famous bridges on the Grand Canal in Venice, located at the southern end of the Grand Canal.

The College Bridge was not completed until 1854, and was rebuilt in 1985. After that, it was the only wooden bridge on the Grand Canal and survived to this day.

The two ends of the bridge are San Vidal Field and Mercy Field. There used to be a School of Mercy Santa Maria University in Mercy Land, and it is now the location of the Academy Art Gallery.

When the weather is good, strolling on the bridge, there is a blue sky above your head, a magnificent canal in front of you, surrounded by various houses, this is Shakespeare’s Venice, once a very prosperous port, now it is about to be submerged by water. Beautiful city.

If you visit here in the evening, standing on the college bridge can also see the church of Our Lady of Angkhang being sprinkled with golden light by the sunset.

And the water surface will also be shining with warm and dazzling sunset reflections, and I feel very happy watching the ships passing by.

There are many locks on the college bridge. It is said that if a couple locks the lock here together and throws the key into the river, the relationship between the two will remain inseparable for a long time.

In addition, if you are taking a gondola cruise or water taxi to visit the Grand Canal, you can take a panoramic view of the entire College Bridge on the boat.

The College Bridge during the day may be relatively quiet. In the evening, the small restaurant next to the bridge flashes with lights. You can choose an open-air seat to taste Italian cuisine and enjoy the night view of Venice. The scenery on both sides of the strait is absolutely unforgettable!

Experience:

1. The College Bridge connects the Cestidor Soduro district and the College of San Marco. It is neither the most famous nor the most beautiful bridge in Venice.

But it is a great place to enjoy the scenery, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Grand Canal, and take wonderful photos of the Church of Our Lady of Angkhang on the land!

2. The College Bridge is not as famous as the Rialto Bridge, but the scenery is better, because it is close to the sea entrance of the Grand Canal, so it has a wider view and can see the Church of Our Lady of Angkhang.

The surrounding area is dominated by art venues and college buildings. It has less commercial flavor and more cultural sense than the surroundings of Rialto Bridge. .
