Nearby Attractions |
Venice, which has been floating for over 1500 years is one of the most beautiful and culturally rich cities in the world. Is undoubtelly magic, a pearl of ancient beauty, certainly to be considered without rivals anywhere in the world for its structure and atmosphere.
It is impossible to visit it without being enchanted by the majesty of its old buildings, which vainly love to gaze at their reflections in the many canals that divide it up, even in its most remote corners.
