Venice in Italy

In this posting, I will introduce the Venice in Italy. You may heard and saw Venice. Because Venice’s landscape is wonderful, we can easily see the Venice’s landscape in TV. Many singers shot their music video and many stars go on a trip to Venice to take a rest.

  Venice is composed of about 118 islands and each island is connected by about 400 bridges. Waterways between each island are the major transportation route. In Venice’s down town, we can’t see any cars. The ships are unique vehicle in Venice’s downtown. Of course, immediately outside Venice, people can drive their cars. However, in Venice, motoring is completely rejected.

 

This is Venice’s a narrow alley. The fact that we should get on a ship is unusual. The left side of this bridge is the Doge’s palace. And the right side of this bridge is a jail. Prisoners would sigh when they cross this bridge because they couldn’t see the Venice’s beautiful landscape. So the name of this bridge is “Bridge of Sighs.” In above picture, we can see just the lower part of the bridge.

 

There is St. Mark's square in Venice. The St. Mark’s square is surrounded by St. Mark’s church, The Doge’s palace, a museum, a government office building, a glass workmanship factory, and a clock tower. The St. Mark’s interior is decorated by gold leaf and jewel. And, in the glass workmanship factory, people can see beautiful Venice’s glass products with a trial performance of making glass product. At the time of rising tide, the St. Mark’s square’s bottom is filled with the salt water like above picture.

 

And also, getting around Venice with Gondola can be good memory. A boatman sometimes adds to the amusement by singing songs for tourists.
