LEYES Y NORMAS VENECIANAS

Laws and rules in Venice

Venice has its rules, some are written, others are simple rules to be followed if one wants to respect both the city and its inhabitants.

Now following is a list of the most important things one should know, if you don't want to infringe the rules and regulations:

1) Through out the city (with the exception of the area around Saint Mark's Square, ) it is forbidden to feed the pigeons - be careful! the fine is very expensive;
2) Picnics are not allowed;
3) You can be fined for walking around streets and squares without a shirt;
4) Dog owners are only allowed to take their dogs out if they are on a lead. Dogs that are aggressive or bigger than average must always have a muzzle and be kept on a leash by an adult who is able to control them. By "bigger than average", dogs are meant that are over 60cm. tall, measured from the point of the withers.
5) A dog who dirties the street must have an owner who cleans it.
6) The use of bicycles, skate-boards, roller-skates and similar items is forbidden. It is not allowed to play football, basketball or any other sport with a big or small ball.

Those who use the public transport of the actv also have to follow certain rules:

1) Smoking is forbidden on all means of public transport including the landing stage.
2) At the landing stages you have to wait in the designated space and not in the black and yellow painted area so you don't get in the way of the boats mooring and the passengers getting off.
3) If you are transporting large objects you must ask the captain's permission.
4) Luggage should be placed in the spaces provided near the pilotage cabin or away from the exits and the cabin doors;
5) Backpacks should be carried by hand so they do not disturb the other passengers, also considerably reducing the risk of pickpockets..

A little more useful advice for those walking around the city.
Keeping in mind that walking along the streets, squares and bridges there are also many inhabitants and people who are on their way to work and in much more of a hurry than the normal tourist, here are a few simple rules to avoid the classic "va a remengo" (or rather "get lost!"):

1) On the more crowded streets you should keep to the right so there is enough room for those coming from the opposite direction and those who want to overtake;
2) If you are in a group and you stop to admire a characteristic spot or to wait for one of your friends who has got lost in the Venetian labyrinth, remember to leave enough room for those to get past who know exactly where they are coming from and where they are heading.....
3) Try not to sit down and rest on the steps of the busiest bridges (for example, the Rialto bridge) hindering the vital and rushed pedestrian circulation;

Finally, one more warning:
- be very careful when you hear someone shout "ocio ae gambe" (trans.. "watch your legs"), it means that someone is arriving with a handcart at high speed, probably heavily loaded and therefore difficult to control and slow down..

EL PASEO A PIE MÁS POPULAR EN VENECIA

Walking from Piazzale Roma to St.Mark's square (via Accademia)

This is the itinerary from the Piazzale Rome (Car terminal - Bus Station) to St.Mark's square passing trought the Accademia Bridge.
The names in italics indicate the streets shown in our maps that are also universally known to the inhabitants who you can also ask for help.
The numbers in brackets refer to the photos found on the way.

 Once you are at Piazzale Roma cross Ponte Papadopoli (1) which is on the opposite the large white building of the comunal car park.
Once you have crossed the long steps of this modern bridge, go straight on, go past the Papadopoli Gardens and then below a double arcade (2) that leads to the next bridge. Once you have crossed this turn right (3) (if you turn left you follow the route Rialto-S.Marco).

Walk along the Fondamenta dei Tolentini, follow the canal turning left (4) in to Fondamenta Minotto and then continue straight on for the Salizada S.Pantalon (5) and half of Calle Vinanti.
Before you reach the wooden bridge turn right (6) into Campiello Mosca and cross one more bridge, bringing you to Campo S.Pantalon (7).
Cross the other canal and you find yourself in Campo S.Margherita (8).




You have to cross the whole square diagonally and once you get to the end (keeping the isolated house block to your right) you turn left and then right into Rio terà canal (9).
You across Ponte dei pugni and after walking along a short stretch of Fondamenta you will find yourselves in Campo S.Barnaba (10) (famous thanks to an Indiana Jones film).



Now go under the Sotoportego del casin dei nobili (The aristocrats' brothel -the name itself says it all!), go straight on until you reach the Fondamenta della toletta, where you have to turn left (11) and after crossing a bridge you continue along a stretch of Fondamenta Priuli (12) on the left and Calli Corfù and Gambara, bringing you to Campo della Carità, also known as Accademia (13).



You have to cross the great ponte dell'Accademia and go across Campo and Campiello S.Vidal, bringing you to Campo S.Stefano (or Francesco Morosini) (14) at the end of which you can see the homonymous church.
Now, before you reach the church, you have to turn into a narrow street (Calle del spezier) which is approximately half way down the longer right-hand side of the square, roughly opposite the statue of Nicolò Tommaseo (called the "cagalibri" due to the position of the tomes).

You now continue in an "almost" straight line along Calle del piovan, Campo S.Maurizio, Calle Zaguri, a bridge, Campiello della feltrina (15), another bridge, and Campo S.Maria del Giglio (or S.Maria Zobenigo) with the homonymous church on the left.
Now follow Calle and Ponte delle ostreghe (16) (from here you can see the remains of the Teatro La Fenice on the left) and then the large street Via 22 marzo.
If you look ahead you can already see the church of S.Moisé (17) which you leave behind you on your right while continuing along the homonymous Salizada.

You will now find yourself in the Bocca di Piazza and when you walk under the porticos of the Ala Napoleonica you will finally have reached St.Mark's Square (18).
