Local cafe on the Zitelle


Although situated right in front of Venice's Zaterre (across the Canale della Giudecca) Giudecca Island (that I showed you from above some days ago) is another quiet place in Venice. Tourists are few, in spite of two major points of interest that are Andrea Palladio's Zitelle and Redentore churches. So the neighbourhood cafes, as this little one two steps from the Zitelle Church, mainly attract local people and workers coming for lunch.

Great photo; showing the true Venice. Love the little dog at the bottom of the picture.

Great shot, full of life.
Must admit that although I have spent a lot of time in Venice over many years (1st time 37 years ago), I've never been to the Giudecca—or the Lido. Next time, for sure, and will search out this little café.

Just discovered that Venice has a DP. Incredibly beautiful photos, I have to browse back for some time.

It is a lovely local scene, espacially the little dog.
