'''Grand Canal''' is a [[Venice]]-themed board in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Here, [[Singing Shy Guy]]s were everywhere, and were in charge of the [[Orb Shop]]s and attractions. Landing on the [[? Space]] near the start made the player do a coin game, where the Shy Guys threw coins and [[Spiny]] eggs at them (similar to [[Ukiki]] from ''[[Mario Party 6]]'').

'''Grand Canal''' is a board that is based off of the real {{wp|Grand Canal (Venice)|Grand Canal}} in [[Venice]], Italy in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Here, singing [[Shy Guy]]s are everywhere and in charge of the [[Orb Shop]]s and attractions. In Party Cruise, Grand Canal's star requirements are the traditional exchanging 20 coins for a [[Star (Mario Party series)|star]] in a designated location on the board (10 coins in last four turns). In Solo Cruise, players have to beat their opponent by getting two Stars first by buying them for 20 coins each from a [[Star Space]] on the board. [[Bowser Space]]s do not appear on the board by default but may appear when [[#Bowser Time|Bowser Time]] occurs.


==Possible Star locations==
[[Image:MP7_GrandCanal2.jpg|thumb|left|Mario collecting Coins during the Shy Guy ride.]]
*One space behind the [[Blue Space]] in front of the Start Space.
Landing on the ? Spaces near the gondola house made a Singing Shy Guy come out asking if they wanted a ride. Accepting this took the player to the gondola house on the other side of the board, collecting coins (and avoiding Spinys) on the way. The ? Space on what looked like the leaning tower of Pisa caused the tower to lean over, dropping players in the water, where [[Cheep-Cheep]] squirted them back to start. And the ? Space in front of the juggling [[Blooper]] activated a guessing game, where Blooper juggled four chests that had a [[Star]], ten coins, a [[Dark Star (Item)|Dark Star]] (which took away a Star if picked), and nothing (in Solo Mode, there was still one Star, but three Ztars).
*On the boat three spaces after the first Orb store.
*Atop the double red house when going up on the first junction.
*In front of the second junction.
*Three spaces before the Blooper event.
*Three spaces after the Blooper event.
*Upwards after the third junction, before a [[DK Space]].
*At the end of the stone drawbridge, before the fourth junction.
*Right after the second Orb store, when taking a left at the fourth junction.


==Events==
When Bowser Time came along, [[Bowser]] did one of three things:
[[File:MP7 GrandCanal2.jpg|thumb|left|Mario collecting Coins during the Shy Guy ride]]
*Landing on the [[Event Space|Green Space]] near the start makes the player do a [[coin]] game, where the Shy Guys throw coins and [[Spiny]] eggs at them (similar to [[Ukiki]] on [[Castaway Bay]] from ''[[Mario Party 6]]''). If the player collects 20 coins, the Shy Guy offers to trade them for a Star.
*Landing on the Green Spaces near the gondola house makes a Singing Shy Guy come out asking if they want a ride. Accepting this takes the player to the gondola house on the other side of the board, collecting coins (and avoiding Spinies) on the way.
*The Green Space on what looks like the {{wp|Leaning Tower of Pisa}} causes the tower to lean over, dropping players in the water, where four [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-Cheeps]] squirt them back out to the start.
*The Green Space in front of the juggling [[Blooper]] activates a guessing game, where Blooper juggles four chests that have: a [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]], five coins, a [[Ztar|Dark Star]], and nothing (in Solo Cruise, there are always five coins, but three Dark Stars).
*If a player lands on either of the two Green Spaces on the stone drawbridge, the bridge opens and sends the player (and any other player on the bridge) to a different area on the board.

==Bowser Time==
* Took a souvenir photograph of all the players, and made them pay 10 coins each for it (20 coins if he got in the way). Then, he leaves without giving anyone the photo.
When [[Bowser Time]] occurs, [[Bowser]] does one of three things:
*Takes a souvenir photograph of all of the players, and makes them pay 10 or 20 coins each for it. Then, he leaves without giving anyone the photo. This occurs in all boards except for [[Bowser's Enchanted Inferno!]]
*Flattens one of the Orb Shops, and replaces it with one of his own (called Bowser City). [[Koopa Kid]] stops anyone who passes it and throws them in the shop, where Bowser sells them a worthless item (or a [[Koopa Kid Orb]]) for twenty coins. This also occurs in [[Pagoda Peak]] and [[Pyramid Park]].
*Uses his [[Koopa Clown Car]] to throw [[Bob-omb]]s at the bridges, destroying them. New, sturdy stone bridges are then made, which only have [[Bowser Space]]s on them. These last for three turns before returning to normal. Additionally, all [[Character Space]]s and [[Koopa Kid Space]]s on the bridges are removed upon doing so.

==Spaces (Party Cruise)==
* Flattened one of the Orb Shops, and replaced it with one of his own (called Bowser City). Koopa Kid stopped anyone who went by, and threw them in the shop, where Bowser sold them a worthless item (or a [[Koopa Kid Orb]]) for twenty coins.
