Burano has about 7.000 inhabitants and their main activities are fishing, turism and laces. It has much different atmosphere from Murano, thanks to the "Buranese" custom of painting houses.

Main street in Burano. Very lively, with souvenier shops, door to door, and outdoor restaurants and caffee shops. When you get tired, browsing the shops is tiring as well, do sit down in one of the restaurants and have a nice capuccino - Italian's is the best in the world.

Bright colours painted houses again. The road was very quiet, it was at midday and pretty hot, so may be people had siesta.
We visited one of the restaurants and tasted the most appreciated the "Risotto" with "nero di seppia" - heavenly.

Worth to visit the church of S. Martin, while being to Burano. You can admire there the "Crocifissione" a painting made by G. B. Tiepolo.
