The best places to go shopping in Venice are often hidden in plain sight. You won’t find many malls or arcades in the “floating city”, but you will find small streets and quarters that house some small hidden gems. There are a few malls on the mainland.
You’re spoilt for choice when it comes to souvenirs and trinkets, with independent stores blending into every nook and cranny of the rich Venetian architecture. There are some luxurious Italian boutiques as well, and these stores are great for window shopping. Here are some tips on where to shop in Venice and what to buy in the extraordinary city.
