More info about travel to Venice: www.ricksteves.... The Doge's Palace - the ruling center and opulent, art-filled residence of Venice's duke - was built to show off the wealth of the republic and to remind visitors that Venice's mighty trading empire was number one. For four centuries (about 1150-1550), this was the most powerful half-acre in Europe. The evocative Bridge of Sighs connects the palace to the prison next door. #ricksteveseurope #ricksteves #venice
