Ponte dei Sospiri
Aug 6, 2006 by Ziva from Kranj
Overall Rating: 8 User Rating Score: 8

  • Beautiful, interesting and inspiring.
  • Too crowded.

“Ponte dei Sospiri is beautiful and indeed very romantic. Only for real romantic there was too many people there. So I think that in the early mornings with a glance of vagabond cat and horseshoe roll this is one of the views of Venice that one never forgets. And I think that this point with its shape really inspires some love stories and at a first gaze at it I was not prepared to believe there was nothing of a kind connected with it. Only some prisoners sighing because they knew this is their only promenade over this bridge.”
