For centuries, the black gondolas, flat boats propelled by
only one long rudder were the most important means of transportation. Nowadays
they are a favourite with tourists who try to catch the spirit of this city of
trade, of the arts and of immense merchant and political power in its history.
Museums, galleries, historical libraries, theatres and opera are so numerous in
Venice that it is hard to choose what to see and do in a restricted amount of
days.
This city 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.
