Banks of the Grand Canal have more than 170 builds lined along, most of these buildings date from the thirteenth to the eighteenth century where they display the wealth and how imaginative the Republic of Venice were. The noble households in Venice invested a large amount to exhibit their palazzos, it had become almost like a competition between them since it was a strategy for exposing their pride and deep connection with the lagoon. Palazzo's are outstanding structures (when translated to English the meaning is palace) they are usually coined as a extravagant block of apartments, some could have shops at the bottom floor even though the upper levels were home to several households. Among the many are the Palazzi Barbaro, Ca' Rezzonico, Ca' d'Oro, Palazzo Dario, Ca' Foscari, Palazzo Barbarigo and to Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, housing the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. With houses such as these the town can boast that not one other villas in Italy can rival the Palazzo's.

There are 2 more bridges, the Ponte degli Scalzi and the Ponte dell'Accademia.
