The quiet expanse of the Venetian lagoon from Burano, broken only by a gondolier pushing his gondola across the water.A solitary figure navigates the misty Fondamenta Gasparo Contarini in Venice’s Cannaregio district, as the Rio della Madonna dell’Orto flows by on a quiet, foggy January morning.On Riva del Vin, a street that runs from the Rialto Bridge along the Grand Canal, an elderly man walks past Palazzo Canova as three shadows stretch across the wall.The spirit of Venice Carnival comes alive on the Riva degli Schiavoni, with costumed figures by the water, the Doge’s Palace beside, and San Giorgio Maggiore in the background.The tranquil Rio dell’Arsenale once served the Venetian Republic’s powerful Arsenal, where warships were mass-produced to fuel Venice’s dominance as a maritime power until 1797.An extension of the Dorsoduro sestiere, the island of Giudecca is separated from Venice only by its namesake canal and is home to the Church of the Redeemer, designed by Andrea Palladio.A major tourist attraction in Venice, often known in English as St Mark’s Square, Piazza San Marco is also famous for its pigeons.Located 7 km from Venice, Burano is an island in the Venetian lagoon famous for its colorful houses. It is connected to the neighboring island of Mazzorbo by a wooden bridge.
