Venice Exclusive Romance! 7 Moments to Fall in Love with This City

Venice is not just about taking photos! Want to experience the city like a local? Here are 7 things you must do! 👇 ⛪️ [Tour St. Mark's Square] 💡 Must-do: ● Look up at the 40,000 gold leaf mosaics on the dome of the Basilica, and observe which Bible story the murals are telling. ● Climb to the top of the bell tower for a panoramic view! Go 1 hour before sunset, and the whole city will turn amber~ ⚠️ Note: No shorts or bare shoulders allowed. If you're worried about the heat, bring a large scarf to wear when entering the church! 🚣 [Wander on a Gondola] You haven't really been to Venice until you've taken a ride on a pointed gondola! It is recommended to depart in the evening to watch the golden sunlight slowly sprinkle on the canal. ✅ Tips: It's more cost-effective to choose a shared boat for 2–4 people. It usually starts at EUR 80 during the day, and it's more romantic at night, but the price is also more expensive~ 🎵 [Listen to Heavenly Music at the Teatro La Fenice] One of the most beautiful opera houses in Europe! Famous musicians such as Wagner and Bellini have been here. 💡 Must-do: Watch La Traviata! Feel how Italian opera lingers and lasts for days. ✅ Tips: It is best to grab tickets on the official website 1 month in advance. If you are lucky, you can grab early bird tickets! 🔥 [Go to Murano Island to See Glass Magic] 💡 Must-do: ● Fully understand the glass craftsmanship and production methods in the Glass Museum. You will have to marvel at how skillful the craftsmen are! ● Visit the glass factory and watch the master shape the glass with a 1,300℃ flame. ● Buy glass souvenirs, birds, butterflies, candies, and constellation series. There are only shapes you can't think of, not shapes that can't be made. 🚢 Transportation: Take the water bus directly from the main island. 🌈 [Go to Burano Island to Receive a Rainbow Baptism] The whole island is macaron-colored! The most photogenic spot is the canal bend next to the Lace Museum. 💡 Must-do: ● Take great photos in front of the rainbow houses. ● Admire exquisite handmade lace at the Lace Museum and purchase your favorite lace collars/ornaments/refrigerator magnets/bookmarks. 🚢 Transportation: Take the water bus directly from Murano Island or the main island. 🔨 [Explore the Gondola Boatyard Squero San Trovaso] The 17th-century wooden shipyard is still in operation! 💡 Must-do: Stand on the opposite bank of the river and witness the craftsmen bending the hull with flames, cutting wood with axes, and building a boat by hand. Location: Dorsoduro district, near the Gallerie dell'Accademia. 🎭 [Walk into the Carnival Mask Workshop Ca' Macana Original] Push open this old shop and it feels like you've broken into a mysterious masquerade ball! It doesn't matter if you don't know about the Carnival. The staff will explain the meaning behind the various masks in detail. 💡 Must-do: Purchase a favorite mask/paint an exclusive mask by hand (production requires approx. EUR 50). Location: Dorsoduro district. The romance of Venice is hidden in every moment of slowing down~ Search 🔍 [Venice Local Guide] to get more authentic ways to play in Venice~
