The Canal Grande (Grand Canal) is the most important and largest canal in Venice in Italy. It is between 30 and 70 meters wide and about 5 meters deep. It is originally the course of an ancient river, possibly a branch of the Brenta, which meandered between the marshy islets on which Venice was later built. Since the Middle Ages it has been the central waterway of the city.
Along the Grand Canal are many palaces, such as the Ca' Dario, Palazzo Vendramin-Calergi, Palazzo dei Camerlenghi, Ca' Pesaro, Ca' d'Oro, Ca' Rezzonico and the Palazzo Vernier dei Leoni with the Peggy Guggenheim Collection.
There are also several churches, of which the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute is the most spectacular.
