The Palazzo Ducale, symbol of the golden age of the Serenissima; the Torre dei Mori, better known as Torre dell’Orologio, which has marked the time of Venice for centuries. There are several historic cafés overlooking the square and among them, not to be missed the wonderful Caffè Florian, the oldest cafè in Italy, opened in 172.
