In addition to artistic and cultural beauties, Venice also offers a cuisine rich in flavors and typical products, such as cicchetti, sarde in saor, and risotto. Moreover, one cannot leave Venice without trying its traditional sweets like fritole or tiramisu. For a unique gastronomic experience, it is recommended to visit Rialto Market or have dinner in a restaurant with a view of the Grand Canal. The city is also famous for its events such as the Carnival, with its masks and magical atmospheres, the Art Biennale, and the Redentore Festival. Furthermore, in autumn, an unmissable event is the Feast of the Salute which celebrates the plague epidemic that struck the city in 1630 and during which there will be a grand firework show.
