Venice is a city of palatial buildings, magnificent churches and water
avenues. Your travel dream will come true walking the narrow streets
and busy piazzas. While vacationing in Venice, remember a bit of
information, that one of the wonderful sides of Venice is the private
city.
Buy a map before you go. On your adventure, take any canal or any
corner of the city and all is completely different from anything we
are used to in our steel and concrete cities. The most striking
aspect is the incredible variety—no two canals, streets or blocks of
houses are the same; every aspect of Venice is unique unto itself. On
your travel experience take the Amaretto (water bus) – a great way to
transport you and your luggage for an inexpensive deal on
transportation.
Venice appeals to the romantic imagination with its gondolas, the
great canvases upon which its faces have been recorded, its buildings
and monuments which are a virtual living museum. I like to look at
Venice and think of it in terms of an archaeologist. There is so much
history all around it is easy to think of ancient times
There are 180 canals (28 miles of them). Each is about 12 feet wide
and follow the path of the original 118 islands. You cannot begin to
imagine the splendor of Venice until you see it. The Grand Canal is
2.3 miles long with an average depth of nine feet.
Venice is divided into six districts, each of which is criss-crossed
by a web of canals. As you walk along the labyrinth of corridors, you
will see window sills that have flower pots which add a note of color
to the streets, open squares and paved streets. Getting lost in
Venice can be a lovely adventure as the house address numbers follow
no pattern.
Sightseeing in Venice will show you tunnels that actually cut into
buildings. Life in Venice seems to go on mainly in the streets and
squares and as you travel about the city, in summer, the squares
become like drawing rooms. Venice is known for its hand blown
glassware, fine lace, bronze objects, silverware, jewelry and
furniture.
Living the life of the Venetians is a truly unique travel experience.
A bit of information; there was no sales tax on purchases under 300
Euro when we were last there.
Since 1750, Venice floods 50 times a year on the average and there are
only 20 plumbers listed in the Venice phone book.
