Our main Google satellite photo map is a great way to see Venice from above, but if you aren't intimately familiar with the city's geography, zooming in on landmarks may leave you more confused than enlightened.

In this new gallery at AerialVenice.com, we solve that problem with dedicated aerial photos of Venice's main attractions, monuments, bridges, transportation hubs, and other landmarks.

Each page has at least two large satellite images--typically an overview and a 45-degree close-up--with descriptions of what you'll see in the photos. We also link to related pages and articles whenever we can.

If you wish, you can:

  • Zoom in or out on a photo;

  • Switch from "Satellite" to "Map" or "Terrain" view--or to Google's dazzling 3D "Earth" view, if you have the free Google Earth Plug-in installed in your browser.

  • Move the image around in its frame with your mouse.

To expore Aerial Venice at home--or while you're traveling--please go to our Index of Locations. And if you'd like a bird's-eye view of places to stay in Venice, see Aerial Venice Hotels.
