Calle Varisco
the secret:
The Narrowest Path in Venice
Few people know that Venice’s labyrinth of tiny streets exists because of an old regulation, builders were required to leave a passageway to get construction permits. To maximize building space, they made the streets as narrow as possible, sometimes just wide enough for a single person!

Venice is famous for its narrow alleys, but Calle Varisco takes it to another level - measuring only 53 centimeters at its narrowest point, it's officially the slimmest street in the city. Walking through it feels like squeezing between history itself!
