5 Instagram accounts that will make you want to visit Venice

There’s no place like Venice. Here’s a look at five Instagram accounts that will have you swooning for this magical floating city.

To build a city where it is impossible to build a city is madness in itself, but to build there one of the most elegant and grandest of cities is the madness of genius. Alexander Herzen

Venice is so bewitching, it’s not even funny. If you’ve traveled to La Serenissima, memories of the evocative floating city stay with you forever. If you haven’t been, you have no idea of the level of intrigue and elegance that await you. In short, the Queen of the Adriatic is literally one breathtaking moment after another. Pastel-hued Venetian Gothic architecture protrudes from the gondola-studded canals that twist and turn through the city’s 118 small islands. Needless to say, it’s impossible to put your camera down and is, therefore, an Instagrammer’s paradise. Here are five of our favorite Venice Instagrammers who capture this majestic city exquisitely.

From serene canals to striders-by to hidden treasures, the Instagram feed of local Settimo Cannatella is a testament to his fondness for Venice. His pics will no doubt have you pining for a visit, but also pay attention to the people he captures.

Rosario’s perspective of Venice is just, in a word, stunning. From Venetian Gothic architecture to paint-peeled facades to canals swallowed up by fog, Venice has never looked so pretty or mysterious as seen through Rosario’s lens.
