The scenery of Venice is always inseparable from the “water”. The bridge between the big bridge and the small bridge forms a watery world like a maze.
Hi @Bonjourtaiwan , thanks for sharing. It is an amazing experience seeing Venice. Take care and don’t get lost (I know how easy it is to get lost without a map).
Thanks your comment.
Thank God, I had a Google Maps Guide to get out of the maze.(^^)
Hi @Bonjourtaiwan ,
Wow, these are beautifully captured images! Thanks for sharing with us! Venice is for sure my favorite place in Italy, but Rome was rather beautiful as well. Did you manage to visit other cities?
Thank you @Bonjourtaiwan for this post about Venezia, a city that I love. I am very fortunate, as I can reach it in 25 minutes (yes, this is nice). Carnevale di Venezia is starting in a few days, with a lot of masks all around the narrow roads.
Do you want to go there and avoid the croud? Venezia, an unconventional view will help you.
Do you want to have some amazing and unforgettable experience? Palazzo Ducale and Palazzo Mora - Biennale Arte are easy to find, and visit
@AntonellaGr is showing here an alternative view of Venezia and its lagoon
Have a Fun and enjoy visiting Venice
Wow @ErmesT , you’re rather blessed to live there!
Some of us are lucky enough to visit, so thanks for your valuable input.
Thank you @AlexaAC
Yes, I am. And sometime I enjoy guiding other Local guides that are coming for a visit.
@vvbellur can confirm
Brilliant @ErmesT !
My last visit was many years back. Maybe next time, I can count on you to guide me and share some of your firsthand experience.
Hi @Bonjourtaiwan ,
I have never had the chance to visit Venezia before, mainly for laziness and because I had other places on my agenda. Can you please describe us how was your experience there and what amazed you the most?
Let’s see if you can convince me to go there finally.
Dear AlexaAC
Thanks your comments.
Don’t worry, I have a lot of stories to share about Rome and other cities in Italy.
Let’s browse one by one in the future.
Best regards
Dear Sorbe
Thanks your comments.
I would to recommend that you must go to Venice in your lifetime.
(If you still believe romantic love)
Legend has it that as long as the bells ring at the twilight time and kiss under the bridge of sighs in Venice, their love will last forever. This is the classic movie dialogue in the 1979 " A Little Romance"(Chinese translated:Love at sunset bridge).
It was the pure love of the beautiful lettle girl and the young boy, and the original romantic imagination of Venice.
In addition, Venice also is the hometown of my hero Marco Polo.
We got one thing in common @Bonjourtaiwan ,
I admire Marco Polo too, and I recently watched a really interesting series about him. Venice is also the hometown of another great model for all gentlemen: Mr. Giacomo Casanova.
Thank you for this fact about the bridge of sighs. I really like these kind of things.
Excellent @Bonjourtaiwan !
Sounds like a plan! Looking forward to that!
By the way, don’t forget to tag Local Guides in your posts by writing @ before the name. This way we receive a notification, thanks.
@Sorbe here are a few more pics to motivate you to travel!
Hey @vvbellur ,
This definitely caught my attention. I have spotted the sighs bridge, but I am wondering about the name of the church in the first picture of you collage. When have you been to Venice?
@Sorbe , this is Basilica dei Santi Giovanni e Paolo. I was on a long 2-month solo trip across Europe b/w late July and September last year. I also met the awesome @ErmesT for the first time here! See pic here! Some of the best memories of my life!
Gondola is the symbolization of the city:((
Hey @vvbellur ,
This is absolutely great. In which other cities have you been during your trip?
@ErmesT I bet you played the role of “Cicerone” in Venice. Which spots of the city did you show her?
Nice photography pictures @Bonjourtaiwan thanks for sharing wonderful post.
Hi @Sorbe
As @vvbellur was visiting Canareggio, the most touristic part of the city and the shortest and most crowded way to reach San Marco square, I decided to show something completely different. We had dinner in Osteria Bakan, in a small “campiello”.
Vandana don’t eat meat, but we had no problem in finding excellent food from the Italian culinary tradition: we started with Burrata with watermelon and reduction of balsamic vinagar, (photo by Vandana) then we shared Bigoi in salsa di basilico and Parmigiana di melanzane (here in Vandana view and my view), to end with biscotti and vinsanto.
Funny things: at the end of the dinner I had five minutes HO with Google, so I was able to show a short view live from Venice to them.
I love that part of Venice, where you can find “normal people” living a “normal life”
