2. Favorite Venice Italy Shopping Spots

Next to all the kitsch and tourist goods, quality products and souvenirs are available in Venice. 

One of everybody's favorites is the Venice Rialto Market 

In hidden alleys, you can find the best stores with local food and products. You might discover shops with unique local souvenirs far away from the tourists.

These are my favorite shops in Venice, Italy:

Jesurum: A shop with triumphant exquisite lace and embroidery. Founded in 1870. The firm acted as a first trade school for poor girls. Address: Piazza S Marco 60-1, Marco S.

Venice Pavilion Bookshop: Excellent selection of multilingual literature and miscellany focusing on Venice. Also, it is a tourist information point and box office for cultural events. They used it even during the Venice Biennale. Address: Palazzetto Selva, Giardinetti Reali, S. Marco 2.

But how about local Veneto wine? You can read it on my new blog page. They say the best-tasting wine is in Valpolicella, near Verona and east of Lake Garda. It is the most famous wine from the Veneto.

  • The Lista Di Spagna;
  • The Strada Nova; 
  • From the train station to Rialto;
  • In the main pedestrian street between the Rialto Bridge and Campo San Polo 

And since Venice Italy shopping is also reflected in the culinary souvenirs, these must not be forgotten. Cheese, ham, wine, vinegar, and olive oil.
