Great collection here, fab if you're a fan of expressionism and cubism like me, but worth visiting for any fans of modern art. The building itself is magnificent (modern, obviously) too and the sculpture garden was another highlight.

In between our marathon sunbathings, we thought we should see some sort of culture so we went in search of as many 'han's as we could find, these are old ottoman inns and the architecture is amazing. Scattered about the old city the fun is finding them as much as seeing them, the best one was Klrkoz Han.

All over the city, mainly the old town, but telling you where would ruin the search!

It's so difficult to choose a favourite attraction in Venice but I think this has to be mine. A beautiful church, a myriad of stunning paintings and the graves of titian amd canova.

My husband and I embarked on this tour to somewhat appease our ghost-loving teen but it turned out to eb fantastic, you get to see so many hidden bits of venice and enjoy secret walkways that it's totally worth it even if you ignore all the ghost talk!

The section of houses from 20 to 30A is well worth making a detour to go past, as the houses are done in seven architectural styles like english cottage, french chateau and russian cathedral!
