It means \"rafts\". Literally, it's like saying the \"Raft Promenade\". Anyway, you won't see any rafts here. So where does the name come from?<\/p>\n<p>In the past, carpenters would send tree trunks down rivers on rafts. <strong>directly into the lagoon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That's why this long promenade facing the Giudecca canal is called this. It was the arrival point for many logs coming from the mountains and the plain.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-582 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/zattere.jpg\" alt=\"zattere\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/zattere.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/zattere-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/zattere-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/zattere-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/zattere-1536x1152.jpg 1536w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2048px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2048\/1536;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc135507741\"><\/a><strong>Where to find the Fondamenta delle Zattere<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This beautiful promenade is located in the <strong>Dorsoduro district<\/strong>. It is quite long and links the San Basilio area to Punta della Dogana.<\/p>\n<p>Walking along Fondamenta delle Zattere, you'll have the chance to see the skyline of<strong> Giudecca Island<\/strong>. From here you can also see the famous Church of the Redentore.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc135507742\"><\/a><strong>What to see along the Zattere promenade<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The most interesting monuments are located close to Punta della Dogana.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, in this area you could see the Magazzini del Sale, which is often used as a venue for local exhibitions. Near the Magazzini is the church of Santa Maria del Rosario, <strong>often referred to as the Gesuati church.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If, as you approach the San Basilio area, you turn slightly to the right, you can also see <strong>the famous Squero di San Trovaso<\/strong>one of the last places in Venice where gondolas and other boats are made.<\/p>\n<p>If you're with children, this is the perfect place in Venice for them to discover new things. In fact, the workshops are usually open, and you can watch the making and renovation of <a href=\"https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/en\/venice-gondola\/\">gondolas<\/a> that roam the <a href=\"https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/en\/grand-canal-venice\/\">large canal<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc135507743\"><\/a><strong>Why visit this place?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>First of all, it's a great place to relax. In Venice, you'll be walking for hours. In fact, it's unlikely that you'll be constantly taking <a href=\"https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/en\/boats-venice\/\">boats<\/a>. Not only are the costs quite high, but the different boats don't go everywhere in Venice.<\/p>\n<p>So you'll be wandering around for hours on end <a href=\"https:\/\/bonjourvenise.fr\/en\/venice-on-foot\/\">on foot in Venice<\/a>. To relax, you can take advantage of the various parks that exist in the floating city. However, there are a number of <strong>none as relaxing as Zattere<\/strong>. Here you can really get away from the crowds and enjoy a soothing stroll.<\/p>\n<p>To make your rest complete, you can also take a seat on one of the benches provided on site. You'll be able to <strong>regenerate your muscles from that long walk.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc135507744\"><\/a><strong>Take time out for a meal in Zattere<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You can also stop off at a local restaurant or bar and order something to eat or drink. While you're there, I recommend you try <strong>the famous gelato da Nico<\/strong>. Finally, you can simply stroll along and let your gaze indulge in the beauty of the waters before you.<\/p>\n<p>When sunset approaches, choose the perfect spot and sit by the water. It's a moment you'll never forget.<\/p>\n<p>Zattere is a place where you can <strong>rest between visits<\/strong>. If you've got enough time in town, I'd advise you to take a break here. You'll be able to make the most of your vacation with a remarkable view of the east coast. <strong>while enjoying the peace and quiet.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fondamenta delle Zattere est l\u2019un des endroits les plus appr\u00e9ci\u00e9s de Venise.
