Knopf MapGuide: Venice
This opening fold-out contains a general map of Venice to help you visualize the 6 large districts discussed in this guide, and 4 pages of valuable information, handy tips and useful addresses.
Discover Venice through 6 districts and 6 maps
Piazza San Marco/ Castello (southwest)
San Marco/ Accademia/ Dorsoduro (east)
Dorsoduro (west)
Rialto/ San Polo/ Santa Croce
Cannaregio/ Ghetto Nuovo
Fondamenta Nuove/ Castello (north)
For each district there is a double-page of addresses (restaurants — listed in ascending order of price — cafés, bars, music venues and stores) followed by a fold-out map for the relevant area with the essential places to see (indicated on the map by a star *). These places are by no means all that Venice has to offer but to us they are unmissable. The grid-referencing system (A B2) makes it easy for you to pinpoint addresses quickly on the map.
Transportation and hotels in Venice
The last fold-out consists of a transportation map and 4 pages of practical information that include a selection of hotels.
A thematic index lists all the sites and addresses featured in this guide

Another fantastic map book that, I have no doubt, will keep me on track during my upcoming trip to Venice over March Break. It's clear, easy to follow, and suitably informative.
