With its central location in the Veneto and its proximity to Padova, Venice, Verona and Lake Garda, you would think that this town would enjoy its fair share of visitors. When you consider the town’s beautiful buildings and friendly atmosphere, its quiet existence becomes even more difficult to understand.
Venice, or Venezia as the Italians call it, or Venexia as the Venetians call it, is an outstanding city for many reasons.
Just the fact that the city is built on massive poles, hammered into the soft subsoil, is enough to make it noteworthy. But Venice’s remarkable history spanning the centuries has resulted in a city full of extraordinary artistic treasures and stunning architectural treasures.
