How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The main crossing of the Grand Canal, with a glyph hidden under its east end just above the water.
The real place
The game correctly shows the wooden bridge of the 1480s. The stone bridge that visitors see today was built in 1588 to 1591.
Visiting
It is free and very crowded by mid-morning, so go early. The Rialto market next to it runs on weekday mornings.
