Venice - Merceria
|
|
Merceria is the main shopping street of Venice. It begins near the Rialto Bridge as a small square - in the center is a statue commemorating the Italian dramatist Carlo Goldoni - and winds its way to St Mark's Square, emerging under the clock tower. The shops in this famous street offer a cosmopolitan range of goods, the emphasis being on textiles, particularly lace, leather goods (shoes and handbags) and glassware from Murano.
