A true symbol of Venice.

One of the famous and beautiful place in Venice, Italy. The Rialto Bridge is one of the most iconic landmarks in Venice, Italy. It spans the Grand Canal and is known for its elegant design and historical significance. It's a popular spot for tourists and offers beautiful views of the city. We enjoyed a lot. Highly recommended. Try to go in sunny day otherwise you might not enjoy.

One of the most iconic bridges and famous views in Venice. The view is amazing on both sides. A must see location for tourists. Only problem is there are lots of tourists all the time(as expected) and it is sometimes hard to find a nice spot on the bridge.

Venice's most beautiful gem! With its stunning views, breathtaking nature, and serene atmosphere, it's truly a place of tranquility. Though it may be a bit crowded, the wait for a perfect photo and the chance to soak in the scenery is absolutely worth it.

Venice is pretty. Al lot bigger than I thought. We only spent the day there and it just wasn't enough time to see all that there was. Gondola ride was okay and food was fantastic! Weather in November was cool and if you're one who gets warm pretty fast from walking, layer your clothing because you'll warm up fast walking through the streets

The bridge is amazing! On top, you can admire a beautiful panorama of the canal. Along the bridge, there are many small shops with masks, jewelry, and glass.

Beautiful bridge, beautiful scenery. Managed to get a view of a purple sky as the sun was going down. Downfall was very busy! So if you're taking children, keep them close.

A very busy bridge. The oldest bridge in Venice over the Grand Canal. There are shops on the bridge, both sides too. Many people are on the bridge to get the view of the canal on both sides, which is lovely.

Very neat bridge that takes you into Plaza San Marco. There are also taxi and gondola services next to the bridge. Liked this bridge because we live in Rialto California.

A great view of the big canal in Venice. Do consider it will be crowded as everyone wants to take a picture. But you can always take the back stairs to avoid the crowd.

Good place to take pictures. If you want decent pictures, you have to be here early. A lot of people are trying to take photos here and it's hard to get a decent solo picture on the bridge. You can also take pictures on the side of the bridge

Lovely in the January sunshine. A must for any visitors to Venice. Shops on the bridge are for the Uber rich but head north and there are fruit and veg markets and a fantastic fish market.

Venice Venice Venice... The magical city and its charm!! Navigating through its bylanes, you will be mesmerized by its old and beautiful buildings. Nothing fancy just pure historical way of living which has been preserved for us to witness today. Canals add to the beauty and so does the numerous bridges built on these canals. Rialto bridge is one such bridge which stands bravely in these waters presenting 1000 of tourists a chance to pose with water and the houses in the backdrop.

Beautiful and one of the main bridges to cross between San Marco and San Polo. Come before 8am if you want to take photos with no one there! Otherwise it gets very crowded. There’s also a lot of shops if you want to do some shopping but definitely tourist trap

The central and largest bridge of the biggest Canal of Venice. Of a truly beautiful medieval City - Island, which is not coincidentally the busiest tourist destination in the world. Romance, emotion and a unique atmosphere make up a setting that leaves no one indifferent to visit Venice.

Venice is the kind of place you can walk around gorgeous landmarks like the Rialto Bridge, a five hundred year old bridge and the oldest in Venice, are around the corner. We came upon this bridge at night and were stunned with the beauty of Venice. Then, we took a gondola ride in the daytime and saw how pretty it was in a different light - must go!

Beautiful day at the Rialto Bridge. Best place to get a photo is either of a gondola (which we experienced and I highly recommend) or at the bottom of either end on the dock off the taxi boat stations. Went on a Sunday and it was packed then went on Monday 11/20/2023 and there was very few people there. The bridge was larger than I expected.

Architecturally, the Rialto Bridge is a masterpiece of engineering and design. Built in the late 16th century, its elegant stone arches soar gracefully over the bustling waters of the Grand Canal, creating a striking silhouette against the backdrop of Venetian palaces and churches. The intricate detailing of its balustrades and the harmonious proportions of its arches are a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the artisans who brought this vision to life.

The most impressive bridge in Venice. Not to be missed. Beautiful view of the grand canal from it's top.
