About Venise

Venise flotte sur une lagune de plus de cent îles : une ville de canaux, de palais et de ponts sans voitures, où chaque promenade mène à l'inattendu.

Le Grand Canal traverse la ville en un grand S inversé, bordé de palais et enjambé par le pont du Rialto. Près de son embouchure, la place Saint-Marc réunit la basilique Saint-Marc et ses mosaïques dorées, le palais des Doges, le pont des Soupirs et le haut campanile de brique. Vaporetti et gondoles montrent la ville sous l'angle pour lequel elle a été construite.
