Airport in Venice

Venice (Italian: Venezia), the "city of canals", is the capital of the region of Veneto and of the province of Venice. The city stretches across numerous small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers.

Marco Polo Venice Airport (VCE) is an airport located on the Italian mainland near Venice. The airport was named after the Venetian traveller Marco Polo, who is considered the European rediscoverer of China.

The airport is connected to the nearby railway stations of Venice-Santa Lucia and Mestre-Venice by scheduled bus services, and to Piazza San Marco by water taxi.
