It is still possible to find quiet spots in Venice: Castello is a colourful neighbourhood with plenty of areas to explore and come back to, yet close to the better known sites of the city.
It never fails to surprise me how concentrated tourism is, even in the most touristy places. When walking along the Riva degli Schiavoni from the San Marco square, you have to zigzag around groups of tourists from all over the world. Pretty soon, though, you are walking alone, and once you reach the Parco delle Rimembranze on Sant' Elena island, you are virtually alone. From here, there are still vast areas of Castello to explore: the backside canals to the north, streets where you barely see a single soul, unexpected little squares, small parks, a little harbour with boats bobbing on the green water of Venice, a church where people just are coming out after prayer. Here, you get a taste of daily Venetian life away from the spectacular, iconic, and cliche places of the city. You can see a mother carrying her buggy over a bridge, laundry hanging over a canal, an old woman shuffling down the street with a shopping bag, two women chatting in the street, a man repairing his boat.
