San Marco, Central administrative district in Venice, Italy
San Marco district extends across central Venice with narrow canals, stone bridges, and numerous palaces surrounding Saint Mark's Square and its basilica.
The district served as the political center of the Venetian Republic from the ninth century, housing the Doge's Palace and governmental offices.
The Teatro La Fenice opera house stands among multiple museums, art galleries, and the Correr Museum displaying Venetian artifacts and paintings.
Water taxis and vaporetti connect San Marco to other districts through designated stops along the Grand Canal and smaller waterways.
The Procuratie buildings frame three sides of Saint Mark's Square with continuous arcades stretching over 500 meters in total length.
