The Bridge of Sighs is a famous landmark in Venice, Italy, built in the 17th century.
It connects the Doge's Palace to the city's prison, it was named after the sighs of prisoners who, according to legend, would take one last breath of the free air before being locked up forever.
The bridge is made of white limestone and features beautiful Baroque architecture. Today, it is a popular tourist attraction & symbol of the city's history and culture.
You can buy tickets & cross the bridge when you explore the Doge's Palace, which was once the seat of power in Venice & now houses a museum.
