About Venezia

Venezia flyter i en lagune med over hundre øyer, en bilfri by av kanaler, palasser og broer der hver spasertur ender et uventet sted.

Canal Grande slynger seg gjennom byen i en stor, omvendt S, kantet av palasser og krysset av Rialtobroen. Nær munningen samler Markusplassen Markuskirken med sine gylne mosaikker, Dogepalasset, Sukkenes bro og det høye teglsteinsklokketårnet. Vannbusser og gondoler viser byen fra den vinkelen den ble bygget for å sees fra.
