Venice is the most romantic city in Italy in Europe. Take a trip with one of the many gondolas or longboats that float in the canals of Venice. The view from the boats is spectacular! You can have a completely different view on the city. The city is also amazing with the San Marco Basilica, the Piazza San Marco, the Palazzo Ducale and the Scuola Grande di San Rocco.
The Canalazzo, or Grand Canal, is the main thoroughfare through Venice, and for centuries has been the focus of trading vessels. Now most of the craft are gondolas, barges, and motor boats called vaporetti geared towards the tourist trade. Along the banks of the Grand Canal are examples of the finest in Venetian architecture from grand palazzos (palaces) to faded frescoes and marble exteriors. To get the best view of it, take a trip in a gondola.
