Venice is one of the world's most
romantic cities. Built over a sprawling archipelago, Venice encompasses 118
islands separated by more than 150 canals that are spanned by some 400
bridges. Exploring the passageways that open into flower bedecked piazzas is
one of life's greatest adventures.Your adventure is assisted by the network of water buses (vaporetti) that traverses the whole city and is utilized by residents and visitors alike. One of the best sightseeing routes is along the Grand Canal, passing under the Rialto Bridge and past many splendid palaces. At St. Mark’s Square, one gains access to some of Venice’s most famed attractions, the St. Mark’s Basilica and the Doge’s Palace. From the Piazza San Marco, a maze of narrow streets leads off, lined with shops, cafés and restaurants. One popular pastime is sitting at an outdoor café fronting the square, sipping a drink and people-watching .
Glorious Venice is faced with the threat of gradual sinking, and this has prompted numerous preservation efforts. In the meantime, visit this magnificent and romantic city. Treat yourself to a gondola ride, see the immense art treasures in museums, churches and palaces, have a sumptuous meal, and shop to your heart’s content.
