Every hole ends at an attraction. Sink the putt, read the story, walk to the next tee.

THE VENICE ROUND - STOP BY STOP

HOLE 1 - PAR 3

Basilica di San Marco

Look closely at the blend of Byzantine and Romanesque architecture styles. These details define the Basilica di San Marco, a cathedral that began in 828. Domenico I Contarini served as the architect for this building, which is now part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is also a minor basilica. In 1807, the building became the episcopal seat of the Patriarch of Venice. This site is a central landmark of the city, reflecting a long history of religious and political importance through its distinct structure and its status within the world heritage community.

Santa Maria della Salute

The octagonal shape of Santa Maria della Salute defines its presence at the Punta della Dogana in the Dorsoduro sestiere. This Roman Catholic church was designed by architect Baldassarre Longhena in the baroque architecture style. Its inception was from 1631 to 1687, and it now exists as a votive church and minor basilica. Because of its historical and architectural importance, the site is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can see the influence of the baroque style in the building's grand proportions and detailed ornamentation as you approach the water's edge.

Gallerie dell'Accademia

You can find the Gallerie dell'Accademia within the sestiere of Dorsoduro on the south bank of the Grand Canal. This museum gallery focuses on pre-19th-century art in Venice. One of its most famous pieces is the Leonardo da Vinci drawing known as The Vitruvian Man. Because of conservation reasons, you can only see that specific work for a few weeks every six years. I have noticed that the crowds here are quite consistent, as the museum sees 356,191 annual visitors. It is a wonderful spot to spend an afternoon away from the main tourist rush.

Peggy Guggenheim began displaying her private collection to the public seasonally in 1951. Following her death in 1979, the collection passed to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, which opened the museum year-round from 1980. Lorenzo Boschetti is the architect of the collection. It is a lovely spot for a stroll, though I usually stick to the ledges outside to avoid the guards.

You might expect a simple crossing here, but the Ponte di Rialto is a sophisticated stone arch bridge. It is a Renaissance footbridge that is both covered and built-on. The inception of this structure was 1588, and it reaches a height of 6.7 meters. I've noticed that the stone feels much more permanent than the original 1173 pontoon bridge that first stood in this spot. It is a great place to stop and look at the water before you continue your walk through the city.

For centuries, from the Late Middle Ages to the early modern period, this place was responsible for the bulk of the Venetian Republic's naval power.
