Just a note that the Royal Gardens near St. Mark's Square reopened last month after being derelict for decades and restored past 4 years. https://www.venicegardensfoundation.org/en/restoration-royal-gardens
I signed up for detourism emails prior to my Venice visit in May. If you have time to slow down and move away from the main tourist spots, it is an interesting website. https://www.veneziaunica.it/en/content/detourism-venezia emails come bilingual. Italian first followed by English. Might just be a nice addition to your standard research material.

Maria! Wow, thanks for that information. Looks beautiful and I did not know they were there. On the list for next time!

Thank you! I knew about the Royal Gardens opening, but was not aware of the Detourism magazine. Just signed up! We will be back in Venice in March . . . Briefly.
