The best time for romance in Venice is at night. As you walk along the narrow streets and squares you can listen to the songs of the gondolieri and the sounds coming from open-air restaurants and cafes. After dinner (try Ristorante Masaniello), walk to St. Mark's Square. Two cafes in the piazza feature live open-air orchestras that play popular pieces while visitors sip their drinks.
Late in the afternoon, you will notice a change in the pace of the city. As the one-day tourists leave, the city becomes calmer and more romantic. The best time for a gondola ride is late in the afternoon, after delivery boats leave the narrow canals.
