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.
Burano is about 40 minutes away from Venice by boat. This means that only a very few tourists arrive here. It is very similar to Venice in as far as the town is built on piles with a grid system of canals.
