Our stunning hotel, the Splendid Venice (not to be confused with the ficticious Montenegro Hotel Splendide from the film, Casino Royale!), is wonderfully situated in the heart of Venice. The scene with Q arriving by ferry in white Lotus was filmed there.From the moment you step out of the airport and onto the docks of Venice, Italy, you will enter the mystery, romance and uniqueness that has made this historic city an icon for film, literature and the arts. Port in Palau, Sardinia, Italy - 'The Spy Who Loved Me' filming location.

Later the camera was directed towards St Mark’s Basilica as in the photo below. He ran into the square from its southern corner (right side of the photo below). Standing there you would notice that James Bond didn’t take the shortest route from the hotel to the bank. Through the window you can see interior of the shop that was designed as a bank lobby just for the film. A few steps away in the eastern corner of the square you will get to Longchamp shop.

It was filming location of the scene with James Bond (Daniel Craig) noticing Vesper (Eva Green) walking away with suitcase full of money in ‘Casino Royale’. Walking along the north side of the square you will get to the passage called Sotoportego del Cavalletto. Chang fell on the piano that was standing in the same place as the group of tourists in the next photo. When they were fighting, there was a live concert right below the tower. Next to the shop there is a clock tower called Torre dell’Orologio, that was filmed at the end of fight scene with James Bond and the villain Chang (Toshiro Suga), also in ‘Moonraker’.

There is no sunblind above the antrance to the shop as in the movie and the door has been moved a bit, but every Bond fan will recognize that place. It’s been 40 years already since Roger Moore as James Bond entered Venini Glass, but not many detailes have changed. You will find there Venini shop, known from ‘Moonraker’. Let’s begin the tour from small square called Piazzetta dei Leoncini next to St Mark’s Basilica and the north corner of St Mark’s Square. This time I would like to invite you for a walk around St Mark’s Square.

When I returned to Venice in Italy this summer, I’ve decided to take some photos that were missing from my previous articles: “Moonraker” in Venice and ‘Casino Royale’ in Venice.
