Venice - Venezia

by grayfo - last update: Aug 26, 2008

Venice is also known as the "Queen of the Adriatic", "City of Water", "City of Bridges", and "The City of Light". Venice is built on one hundred and seventeen islands, containing one hundred and fifty canals and connected by four hundred and nine bridges.

This unique City has canals instead of streets, boats instead of buses, and bridges instead of subways. Cars are banned, so the only way you can get around the 1,500-year-old city is by foot or by water.

 Venice is in our list of cities to visit in Europe. The city certainly has lots of great tourist attractions such as the lovely squares, beautiful bridges especially Rialto, wonderful basilicas and the charm and elegance of the palaces. ~ho & pang
