Giudecca — the working island

The long, low island across the Giudecca canal, historically the working-class side of Venice — shipyards, factories, the original Stucky flour mill (now a Hilton). Walk the fondamenta from west to east for the best view of Dorsoduro and San Marco from across the water. Palladio's Il Redentore church anchors the middle. Stop at La Palanca for an affordable lunch on the water. The Cipriani lives at the eastern tip if you want to see what €2,000-a-night looks like from outside.
