Piazza San Marco (in Venetian, Piasa San Marco), located in Venice in the Veneto region, is one of the most important monumental squares in the world, renowned worldwide for its beauty and architectural integrity. It is also known as "The Drawing Room of Europe" or "The Piazza." It is the only urban space in Venice properly called a "piazza," as all other square-shaped spaces are properly called "campi." Its main body is trapezoidal in shape, onto which other areas are grafted, and is approximately 170 meters long.
