[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The art cities are often visited during the mid seasons, but there is no off- season in Venice. In July we are in the middle of the summer; it means hot, long days and open air<\/strong>. Apart from the classic expositions, museums and palaces, July can entertain the inhabitants and the tourists with a lot of opportunities<\/strong> for everyone.<\/p>\n July is one of the favourite months of venetian people, that are looking forward to celebrate the Festa del Redentore<\/strong> with their family. This is also the period when the vacations start<\/strong> both for workers and students.<\/p>\n As you know, in July in Italy it cuold be really hot; in Venice the temperatures can exceed 30 degrees. What makes the situation more difficoult it is the fact that there is a lot of humidity<\/strong>. This is more marked in the city rather than the country side.<\/p>\n If you do not suffer the heat, July allows you to spend long days walking throug the streets of Venice, without umbrellas or boots for the acqua alta. So, the first thing to do is enjoy a walk through the calli <\/strong>!<\/p>\n These streets represent the real Venice, the authentic and less touristic one. In fact in these areas\u00a0 you can see where the real venetian people live. If you are claustrophobic we suggest you just to take some photo and not trying to walk through them.<\/p>\n As an alternative, you can have a unique and unrepeatable moment: a Gondola ride<\/a>. If you\u00a0 want to have a low cost holiday, you could prefer the typical boat: ferry boats<\/strong> of Venice public transport service.<\/p>\n Another things that you have to do in July is a dive into the sea<\/strong> and Venice can fill this need. The city has free beaches and beach resorts on the island of Venice Lido<\/strong>, that separate the Adriatic see from the lagoon. Why don’t you take a break to cool off? To know more about this read the article beaches of Venice and surroundings<\/strong>. On July, as on the rest of the summer time, you want to spend more time with friends all night long. In Venice there are no disco, but there are a lot of pub and bar. Actually, the real venetian nightlife<\/strong> takes place during the hours of the aperitif at the “bacari<\/strong>” (typical venetian bar). A tour of bacari<\/strong> is a must for whom who visit this city. The typical thing to order during the tour is the spritz,\u00a0<\/strong>a cocktail with withe wine and Aperol. For the most greedies, with your spritz you should order some cicheti – the typical Venetian finger food.<\/p>\n There are a lot of appointments in July: there are temporary art expositions<\/strong>, events <\/strong>dedicated to sportsmen, outdoor concerts <\/strong>in the fields, festivals<\/strong> in the islands and nights where the museums are open<\/strong>. The complete calendar of these events can be consulted on the official website of <\/strong>Comune di Venezia<\/a>.<\/p>\n Moreover, the city of Venice hosts one of the most important events of the year, Festa del Redentore.<\/p>\n The Festa del Redentore is one of the most important fest of Venice, and it is attended by tourists, commuters and local people.<\/p>\n It is held every year on the third Sunday of the month and celebrates the healing of the city from the plague in 1577. It was built a huge building, the Chiesa del Redentore<\/strong>, that every year is linked to Piazza San Marco with a bridge made by boats<\/strong>.<\/p>\n But the most important attraction of the event are the fireworks<\/strong> that take place on Saturday evening.The show is very evocative, because the coloured explosions create wonderful reflections on San Marco Basin. Local people tend to watch this event by boat.<\/p>\n To know more about this important occasion and discover some useful tips about how to take part in read our post on the Festa del Redentore in Venice.<\/p>\n Every months there are numerous eno-gastronomic events.\u00a0<\/strong>This is because Venetian people love food, good wine and good company!!! July is the best month for local festivals and thanks to the hot evenings the party can go on until late in the night, here you can find a complete list of food-related events:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n And then there is the possibility to drink a spritz at sunset<\/a> aboard of a wonderful boat to experience a unique excursion passing by St. Mark\u2019s Square!<\/p>\n For you visit of Venice in July, the only problem could be the sticky days. We suggest you to avoid queuing in museums and monuments during the hottest hours of the day<\/strong>, and spend this time of the day walking throug calli which are always in semidarkness, thanks to the height of the palaces.<\/p>\n Alterntively, you can also visit the less famous Churches or palaces<\/strong> (without queueing at the entry) to protect yourself from the hot weather, since in the old building the perceived temperature is lower .<\/p>\n Some names of the building that we suggest you to visit are:<\/p>\n Also with an organized guide tour, you can take a complete tour of the \u201cGolden Basilica\u201d. In the city there are a lot of drinkable fountains<\/strong>, where you can have a rest. However you must not get wet too much and you never have to walk shirtless or with the bikini. It is really considered to be rude and you can be even fined. If you want to dive into the water of the canals<\/strong> do not do it, because even for this reason you can be fined and in addition it is not even hygenic.<\/p>\n Other tips that we want to give you are:<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The art cities are often visited during the mid seasons, but there is no off- season in Venice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":8590,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[617],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nThings to do in Venice in July<\/h2>\n
