Best churches to visit in Venice
St Mark’s Basilica is the church most visitors book in Venice, for its golden mosaics, the Pala d’Oro and the loggia above the square. Beyond it, the Frari holds Titian’s Assumption, San Giorgio Maggiore has a bell tower with the best view of the city, and the lagoon adds the Byzantine cathedral of Murano and the island monasteries of San Lazzaro degli Armeni and San Francesco del Deserto.
