About Veneza

Veneza flutua numa laguna com mais de cem ilhas: uma cidade de canais, palácios e pontes sem carros, onde cada passeio acaba num lugar inesperado.

O Grande Canal atravessa a cidade num grande S invertido, ladeado de palácios e cruzado pela Ponte de Rialto. Perto da sua foz, a Praça de São Marcos reúne a Basílica de São Marcos com os seus mosaicos dourados, o Palácio Ducal, a Ponte dos Suspiros e o alto campanário de tijolo. Os vaporetti e as gôndolas mostram a cidade do ângulo para o qual foi construída.
