Truly a unique city. Laced with an intricate canal system and rich in historical tapestry as a trading and military superpower, Venice is also a great walking city with lots of bridges and alley ways, and surprises around every corner. Glass and art shops are common, as are public squares, sidewalk cafes and great restaurants. Boats moored in canals added a picturesque touch. Vaporettos (the water bus) and water taxis are a scenic way to see the Grand Canal and get across town quickly, but if you have time to enjoy the city, walk!
Particularly striking about modern Venice is the antique fusion of Oriental and Occidental. Common examples include the stylized lines and decorations of the gondolas, architectural elements like peaked window frames and the distinctive minarets on Saint Mark's Cathedral.
