Everything you associate with Venice can be found here: Gondoliers in striped striped shirts, Venetian masks and the Grand Canal - Cannaregio borders it to the north. Many Venetians live in the most densely populated part of the city, which is why you can find many handicraft businesses around the quays in addition to Cannaregio's hotels and restaurants. Countless canals cut through this part of the city in particular, and gondolas and motorboats are always bobbing on the water. The ornate houses are built directly on the waterways, including the marble-gold palace Ca' d'Oro.
