San Giorgio Maggiore island and cruiser, Venice

A cruiser is leaving Venice by the Canale di San Marco between San Giorgio Maggiore and Venice. San Giorgio Maggiore is one of the islands of Venice, lying east of the Giudecca and south of the main island group. Gloriously situated on the island of San Giorgio, San Giorgio Maggiore has been built as part of the Benedictine monastery. The facade of the church is scaled to present a public face to the town of Venice.
