Murano is the island of the lagoon of Venice. This island is the centre of the glass making since the 13th century. Don't leave the island without a visit to one of the artisan shops to see a demonstration of the glass-blowing technique. You won't believe the masterpieces of glass that can be created.

Soon you will notice the houses have a lot in common - they are bright colours and have wooden shutters. Burano is an island where the tradition of lace handicraft is still alive. The original Burano is really expensive, so be careful when buying them. Cheap laces are imported from asian countries.
