About
The Venice Giardini or Giardini della Biennale is an area of parkland in the historic city of Venice which hosts the Venice Biennale Art Festival, a major part of the city's cultural Biennale. The gardens were created by Napoleon Bonaparte, who drained an area of marshland to create a public garden on the banks of the Bacino di San Marco, a narrow stretch of water dividing the gardens from St. Mark's Square and the Doge's Palace.
