Spanning the Rio di Palazzo, the Bridge of Sighs is a masterpiece of Baroque architecture, famously named for the last views prisoners had of Venice before their incarceration. Though its history is somber, the bridge itself is a beautiful, enclosed walkway offering unique perspectives of the surrounding canals and cityscape. It's a must-see symbol of Venice's rich past.
Venice, Italy
The bridge is primarily viewed from the outside, from the Ponte della Canonica or the Riva degli Schiavoni. Access to walk across the bridge is typically included with a Doge's Palace ticket. Inside, it's a narrow, enclosed passage with small windows.
