Main city square social, formed out of Piazza and Piazzetta, St.Mark's square is a religious and political heart of Venice. Surrounded by Doge's Palace, Saint Mark's Basilica and St. Mark's Campanile, this spot is the most visited by ones on a tight budget, enjoying live music played by live bands but also by tourists who don't mind paying 10 euro+ for the cheapest drink. Piazza San Marco is the home of one of the oldest bars in Italy - Caffè Florian.
