About
Gyors tények: Legends say prisoners would sigh as they caught their last glimpse of Venice, giving the bridge its evocative name. The bridge uniquely connects a courthouse to a prison across a small canal, a dramatic passage for those facing justice.
Kiemelkedő helyek: At dusk, the bridge glows softly with the reflection of Venetian lights on water, creating a hauntingly beautiful scene. An intriguing tradition involves couples sharing a gondola ride beneath the bridge at sunset for love and good luck.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes as the best views require a bit of walking along narrow paths.
- Catch the golden hour light for magical photos of the bridge and its water reflections.
- Avoid mid-day when tour boats crowd the canal and block the view.
- Skip trying to enter the prison as it is not open to the public.
