No, as others ave told you the station on the island is Santa Lucia. Venice isn't all that big and you can walk most places. That's a good way to get around because there are a lot of hidden gems of art and architecture that you'll run into. Another alternative is the vaparetto (water bus). You can get single ride tickets (6 euro for 60 min) or day tickets (or longer; 15 euro for a card valid for 24 hours). with the day ticket, the vaparetto essentially becomes a hop-on, hop-of bus and is the best way to get to the outlying islands - Burano and Murano are both interesting. The schedules and rates are at: http://www.actv.it/english/navigazione.php?pagina=tariffe_vaporetto

The water taxis are very expensive.


bg b
railways terminal is Santa Lucia.

then you can board a small ferry "vaporetto" o go by walk

It's Venice, and it's a small city, and the traffic is either pedestrian or boats as it is on a tiny island in a lagoon. You can walk across the city in 20 minutes. Bring good walking shoes.

Santa Lucia is the only train station.

No.

You can take a train to the city of Venice, but when you exit the train station...you get on a boat to take you to the areas of the city, including Piazza di San Marco. It's the only way to get around since Venice is surrounded by water.

look at this map:

Italy live in, you can not get to Venice by train, the last stop is Mestre, which is 3 km from Venezia.i links are still there and are very efficient.
Venice is beautiful, wish you good vacanze.se steps milan I live here.
Excuse my English

an advice: water taxi in venice are very very expensive...so if you don't want to walk you have to pay for a taxy and it's not cheap at all. "vaporetto" is cheapest.

and if you want to go on a "gondola"...you'll pay it a lot!!

You can train in only to "edge" of the city. From the Santa Lucia train Station you'll either walk, water bus or water taxi the city the rest of the day. If you go to Venice by car then you'll get as far as the parking garages, on the "edge" of the city and walk, water bus or water taxi.....l

the nearest train station is the Venezia Saint Lucia. It is at the second stop of train stations in Venice. St Mark's Square is beautiful! beware of the pigeons! =p
