If you are a fan of peaceful nature and marvelous sunsets, Sant’Erasmo, the largest island of the Venetian Lagoon will delight you. This island is where most of the Venetian food supplies are produced. It also features a few landmarks and bell towers.The Maximilian Tower, commenced by the French and completed by the Austrians, is the famous Biennale venue that also organises other occasional exhibitions. Another main landmark of Sant’Erasmo is the 20th-century church that replaced the one that was once demolished by Napoleon’s troops.
Touring Sant’Erasmo on a bicycle is a great way to spend an afternoon. Evenings here can be spent by watching serene sunsets that cast a calming light through trees and over the Venetian Lagoon.
