The storied elegance of Palazzo Papadopoli with
AMAN
According to local legend, it was 1600 years ago, in 421AD, that a band of exiles fled the mainland, and the marauder Attila, to find solace in the netherworld that is the Venetian lagoon. Like something out of fairy tale, this shifting, shallow tidal waterworld, would maroon all but the most knowledgeable of navigators trying to make sense of its hidden channels and passages. From this point, the exiles would, in the centuries to come, go on to build one of the richest and singular civilizations of the modern era. On those days the great expeditions departed, whether it was Marco Polo on his way to China, or the blind Doge Dandolo setting out for Constantinople on the 4th crusade, the powerful merchant princes of the Venetian oligarchy would stand on the bridge they’d constructed over the rio alto and watch their investments put out to sea.

Set in Palazzo Papadopoli, one of the city’s eight monumental palazzos on the Grand Canal, Aman Venice embodies all that is sumptuous and sensuous about La Serenissima. Rococo works of art are offset by the contemporary restraint of Jean-Michel Gathy interiors, while private gardens – rare in this floating city – are overlooked by opulent dining venues and spacious suites.
Just a short walk away from Piazza San Marco, Aman Venice offers the perfect place from which to explore this romantic city, and to discover the hidden gems of the city while floating away on a traditional gondola.

Over the years, Aman has served as guardian for some of the most naturally beautiful and historic settings in the world. The product of a meticulous yet sensitive restoration project by long-time Aman collaborator and acclaimed architect, Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston, Aman New York continues this journey, breathing new life into one of Manhattan’s most remarkable buildings.
Rising from the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street, the Crown Building was built in 1921 at a time of sweeping change - the Roaring 20s ushering in a new era of independence and advancement, and the low-rise mansions south of Central Park giving way to the now famous New York skyline. Business leader and philanthropist, August Heckscher, acquired the site in 1913 and in 1919, he commissioned Warren & Wetmore – the iconic architects of Grand Central Station - to bring his vision of ‘a Cathedral of Commerce’ to life.

Croatia 🇭🇷
Croatia is known for its beautiful seawater and pebbly beaches. But there is so much more to this country. The history of this country dates back to the Romans and has some of the best-preserved ruins. Dubrovnik and its amazing old town, Split with Diocletian’s Palace, and Klis Fortress are just to name a few.

Belgium 🇧🇪
The first and most obvious reason to visit Belgium is for the incredible architecture, scenic small towns on lakes, and even a large city such as Antwerp that has so much to offer despite its larger size. The town of Bruges is undeniably the biggest tourist drawcard in Belgium.
