With the Ghetto, the Madonna dell'Orto church, and some picturesque canals, Cannaregio has plenty of things to see and keep you busy for the better part of the day.
When I reached the Fondamenta delle Cappuccine, I stopped walking and started exploring. Here, I saw early risers walking their dog, a woman opening the shutters of her window, someone preparing his boat for the day. But otherwise, the sometimes surprisingly wide streets and alleys were empty. Every canal seemed to have its own atmosphere: the Fondamenta Misericordia later turned out to be the shopping street with comoparatively more people, the long Fondamenta delle Cappuccine was more like a thoroughfare, while the Fondamenta della Sensa was a quiet canal with a narrow street only on one side. I found a small park tucked away behind a fence, remarkably well kept, and after crossing yet more small streets, I found myself on the edge of the island, with a view of the Isola di San Michele and, a little further, Murano. Here, at the boatstop of Sant Alvise, boats reminded me of how busy Venice can be. As I left the lagoon behind, I continued my exploration of the canals and the hidden corners of Cannaregio.
