For beauty & photography, Gallerie dell'Accademia delivers.
Bellini, Giorgione's enigmatic 'Tempest', Titian, Veronese, Tintoretto, Carpaccio — if you want to understand why Venetian colour changed Western art, this is the one museum that shows it whole. The catch: it's a serious, dense art-history visit with patchy labelling; casual visitors burn out, and it rewards a guide or some prior reading far more than a wander.
