VENICE
Vol. 16, No. 3 Italy
January / February 2011
|
|
Venice is a splendid live museum full of narrow interior alleyways and long-canal-side passageways that double as foundations for the magnificent, centuries-old Venetian palaces that line the Grand Canal. The Grand Canal, the city's main waterway, has been a navigable waterway since the Middle Ages and the vaporetto (public water bus) is the city's most convenient public transportation. Most of the city's major attractions are along the Grand Canal between the Rialto Bridge and Piazza San Marco, making a vaporetto ride one of the easiest, most relaxing and scenic ways to tour the city! The two most important attractions are the Basilica and the Doge's Palace, but Venice also has some of the world's most important Renaissance treasures and Master paintings hidden among its galleries, historic palazzos and remarkable churches. This issue of The European Traveller features important insider tips for visiting the major sights; hiring a gondola or traveling by vaporetto. The issue also highlights the best luxury hotel, boutique hotel, budget hotel and pensione; the most traditional trattorias and cicheti bars; the best spot for a Bellini, and important travel tips for touring the city. Subscribers may also be interested in the issues on Tuscany, Umbria, Emilia-Romagna, the Italian Lakes, Lake Garda, Florence and Rome.
