The city of water, bridges and dreams
Venice is a unique city, built on an archipelago of 118 islands connected by over 400 bridges, immersed in the splendid Adriatic lagoon. The entire historic centre is traversed by the Grand Canal, the great waterway that draws an elegant 'S' between ancient palaces and historic churches.
The city is divided into six historic sestieri ~ San Marco, San Polo, Santa Croce, Dorsoduro, Cannaregio and Castello ~ each with its own character, its own history and corners to be discovered as you stroll through the calli, campi and bridges.
Venice invites to be experienced with slowness and wonder, out of the frenetic rhythm of everyday life. Here, every alley, every bridge and every glimpse of water tell a thousand-year-old story, making this city an experience to be savoured at leisure.

Getting around in Venice
In Venice you move around mostly on foot, between calli, bridges and small squares overlooking the water, discovering unique corners at every step.
For longer journeys or to reach the islands of the lagoon, you can use the vaporetti ~ public transport boats that connect the historic centre and the main islands.
For an atmospheric experience you can take a ferry on the Grand Canal, or experience the classic gondola, a romantic symbol of Venice.
Walking slowly and enjoying every glimpse is the best way to really experience the city.
