Arsenale and Giardini (the two main sites) are worth seeing, but don&#8217;t miss out the other spots all around town! Actually, you don&#8217;t even need to buy the ticket to the Biennale, the smaller venues in the city are free, how amazing is that! Plus, you get to explore alleys and streets and venture into some of the buildings to enjoy art.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5420\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/maponmyplate.com\/?attachment_id=5420\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5420\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5420\" class=\"wp-image-5420\" src=\"https:\/\/maponmyplate.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/11\/1710_venice_art_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5420\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">near Arsenale &#8211; glass works<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">The <strong>Andorran pavilion<\/strong> displayes thousands of pottery bowls on the walls.
