Venice
Venice was the most romantic city we visited in Italy. It was
unlike anything I have ever seen before, absolutely breath taking!!!
I tried, but these pictures do no justice for the true beauty of the city.
The gondolas were everywhere, making their way in and out of
even the tinniest canals.
A gondola is a traditional Venetian sculling boat, very ornate and
beautiful. According to Venetian superstition a couple must kiss
under every bridge for eternal love.
Piazza San Marco is the heart of the city and includes some of
Venice's most famous sights. Here we were standing in the court
yard of Palazzo Dandolo built in 1400AD. The building you see in
the front is St. Mark's Basilica.
My favorite spot, the Rialto Bridge over looking the Grand Canal.
This was the busiest spot on the canal, great for people watching.
The right side of the canal is lined with extravagant restaurants and
tea rooms where we had our final dinner in Italy.
I can't wait to go back again!!
