Take a tour of St Mark's Campanile in Venice, Italy – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
Standing a towering 323 feet, far above the rest of Venice, Italy is St. Mark's Campanile.
This iconic bell tower is a city treasure as well as an infamous landmark.
It is a separate structure from, though associated with, the nearby St. Mark's Basilica.
The weather vane at the peak is crafted in the shape of the archangel Gabriel.
The tower is a simple fluted structure of red brick whose elegance creates a magnanimous focal point in Venice.
St. Mark's Campanile faced destruction in the early 20th century, but was immediately reconstructed, a testament to its importance to Venetians.
