The Guggenheim museum located right on the grand canal in Venice. Take a breather from looking at some of the world's finest works of art by stepping out onto the Marino Marini Terrace to gaze out at the water. As an art viewing experience the Guggenheim in Venice is second to NONE. You will be inspired here. The permanent collection is excellent especially the Nasher Sculpture Garden. The museum has some fantastic temporary exhibits too (I saw Coming of Age. America Art) Aside from the art, Peggy Guggenheim's story and relationship to Venice is fascinating, and of course, the fact that you can walk out the doors of the museum, and have a fantastic Italian meal on the streets of Venice just ad to the experience.
