Venice is the city of love, romance and passion for beauty. The Author illustrates the city as an unparalleled work of art.

He specifies that Venice is placed on 100 thousand wooden poles, built on 118 islands and seems to float on the waters of the lagoon, giving shape to a landscape whose imponderable beauty inspired the great Venetian landscape painter Canaletto. Venice exists floating on 127 fields with 450 buildings of which 170 on the Grand Canal which is crossed by the Rialto dell'Accademia and degli Scalzi bridges.

The Venice Lagoon also has one of the greatest concentrations of masterpieces in the world: from the cathedral of Torcello to the Church of Santa Maria della Salute, all the centuries of an extraordinary Golden Age are represented by monuments of exceptional beauty: San Marco and the School of San Marco, the Frari and the School of San Rocco, San Giorgio Maggiore and so on. Venice has an unparalleled series of architectural complexes that recall the height of the splendor of the Maritime Republic.

From large monuments, such as Piazza San Marco, Palazzo Ducale, Biblioteca Marciana, Museo Correr, Procuratie Vecchie, to the more modest residences in the streets and fields of its six sestieri, including the Scuole Grandi, the hospitals of the schools and institutions of charity or mutual aid of the 1200s, Venice presents a typology of medieval architecture, whose exceptional value goes hand in hand with the extraordinary character of an urban environment that had to adapt to the special needs of the place. Recognized as a World Heritage Site, the beauty and tourist importance of Venice does not just stop at the city center.

The Lido of Venice is a thin island that forms a barrier between Venice and the open sea. It is connected to the city and the mainland only by ferries and is one of the few islands in the lagoon on which there are carriage roads.

The island is characterized by eighteenth-century buildings, such as the Murazzi, a work of defense of the lagoon from the sea, and current ones such as the Mose, which evokes the passage of the Red Sea of Moses. In Venice you can experience beauty and culture also with the carnival and the International Film Festival.

The island of Murano is located north-east of Venice, which has always been characterized by its economic-productive functions: already in the early Middle Ages it was known for its port, for the presence of water mills and for fishing. .
