Venice

 

 

Venice, ItalyNo matter how you picture Venice, be prepared for the reality to be stranger and probably lovelier than you imagined. It is no use pretending that you can do justice to its treasury of sights on a short visit.

Most of the time it is best simply to wander at random, for Venice is as much a city of atmosphere as of museums and monuments. 

 

Built on a hundred and twenty little islands,  linked to the mainland by four hundred bridges Venice are unique.

Not only from  an architectural point of view: fifteen centuries of  history makes her fascinating. Thanks to its swift galleys,  Venice was Queen of the seas, and a bridge between Eastern and Western culture.

The single span balustrade bridge has two parallel rows of tightly packed shops, selling jewelry, leather, masks, silk and souvenirs. A wonderful place to watch and photograph the constant activity of boats on the Grand Canal.
