This itinerary will acquaint us with everything the newcomer sees on his first trip to Venice as he exits from the Santa Lucia Train Station. The first object his eyes immediately focus on is the Church of San Simeone Piccolo with its oversized green dome rising like the tip of a cucumber. He is already enchanted as he slowly makes his way over the Scalzi Bridge, lingering to size up the length of the winding Grand Canal. Once on the other side of the waterway, he knows that he will get lost in the zigzagging streets, but he is prepared, for he has come to experience the most unordinary, the most dazzling city on earth. He knows that by losing himself in Venice, he will find himself in a dream.
