11 Best Places for Shopping in Venice | Condé Nast Traveler

"Libreria Acqua Alta, a charming vintage bookshop named after the flood tides that sometimes submerge parts of the city, keeps its titles protected from high water by piling them in bathtubs and decommissioned gondolas. It's a tourist attraction, sure, but it's also a genuinely funky local curiosity. Two sweet cats guard (and nap among) the treasure trove. Vintage art monographs are piled alongside local city guides and contemporary Italian titles. There are also postcards, magnets, and other knick-knacks." - Andrea Whittle
