A wide-angle view of a tall metal cross amidst tree branches against a clear blue sky. A small, pointed-roof structure with shingle-like exterior stands in a forested area with tall trees and a dirt path leading to it. Outdoor scene with metal bars forming a cross among trees on a grassy area, overlooking a body of water with distant structures. A terracotta-colored building with arched doorways, illuminated by dappled sunlight through nearby tree branches. Wooden structures with vertical beams in a triangular pattern surrounded by trees, under a clear sky.

San Giorgio Maggiore Basilica, 30124, Venice

The woods of San Giorgio Maggiore Island are an architectural delight with ten chapels, created by international designers, scattered throughout its grounds.

Architects from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Great Britain, USA, Australia, Brazil, Japan, Chile, Serbia and Paraguay each created a building for the 16th International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale. They based their work on Gunnar Asplund’s Woodland Chapel built for the Skogskyrkogården cemetery in Stockholm in 1920, and the results were the Vatican Chapels.

As you walk through the small forest, plug into your your audio guide and enjoy an original soundtrack composed by Antonio Fresa and performed by the Teatro La Fenice Orchestra.
