Venice is a unique city where historical palaces and churches and the homes of the Venetians reflect in the meandering canals giving it a surreal beauty and a magical quality that seduces the visitor. After 1400 years of extraordinary history, it has remained almost unchanged; there are no cars, just the sound of footsteps, the splashing of the water in the canals and the swish of the gondolier’s oar.
It is a small city but, but possesses a high concentration of famous art so there is much to see. Despite millions of tourists, each year, it is easy enough to find peace in the beautiful churches, where the light filtering through stained-glass windows make you feel cocooned by the silence and intimacy. Dorsoduro and Castello sestrieri (districts) are less frequented so you can lose yourself in the labyrinth, and savor the real soul of Venice.
