Venice is a truly unique city that has canals instead of streets, and water
instead of traffic. It is the birthplace of romance and passion, the
home of Casanova, folklore and fun, and a vibrant carnival. Art is
everywhere in this city, as are the gondolas!!
The city is divided in six zones or “sestiere” which are San Marco, San
Polo, Cannaregio, Dorsoduro, Castello and Santa Croce. Although there are
six zones,
it is possible to cross the city on foot
in under an hour. Some events in the city are:
Carnival:
40 days before Easter
Redentore: third
Sunday of July
Regata Storica:
first sunday of September
Film Festival: at
the end of August
Venezia Biennale:
During June
Festa della Salute:
