Hala says
East of the Arsenale, Castello is residential: laundry strung between windows, kids in the campi, residents stopping to talk in the middle of the calle. Walk from San Zaccaria east toward Via Garibaldi and the Giardini. There's nothing to 'see,' which is exactly why you go. Eat at El Refolo or Local. End at the Sant'Elena park, which is mostly trees and benches and residents.
