Private Visit of Saint Mark’s Basilica by night

8 Jul 2013 | Travel Ideas

St. Mark’s Church – Crowded with visitors during the day, becomes a silent temple of worship as evening falls.

The doors of the Basilica will be opened just for you and our private guide. The basilica is a testament to Byzantium’s influence on Venice. The façade features gold mosaic arches rising above the carved, Romanesque portal; the rooftop is bedecked with five domes, reminiscent of St. Sophia in today’s Istanbul. The basilica’s interior features marble floors and walls that blend in exquisite, carpet-like patterns and gilded mosaic murals, like icons, adorn the walls.
