We traveled by train from Verona for about 110 minutes to Venice, the Millennium Water City. After leaving the station, we queued up to pick up the one-day ticket of the water bus ordered online (full price 18 euros per person, 8.5% discount), then took the No. 2 water bus boat and arrived at our reserved residence Wharf in the view of Shuicheng. After dinner, we took a water bus and watched another famous Rialto Bridge in the sunset. The 13th century wooden bridge is now a marble bridge lined with shops on the deck. The nearby lights are brilliant and lively. Finally, go to the railway station for information to confirm the tour schedule for tomorrow, and then take a water bus to return to the residence after enjoying the night view of Venice Watercity and exhausted victory. The next day I continued to visit Venice, the Millennium Water City. After checking out at 8 a.m., I took my luggage to the dock and waited for the boat. The golden sunset reflected the light on the water surface of the Grand Canal. The boats were basically for the residents'own use. The whole island of Venice was gradually awakening from dawn. After waiting at the dock for half an hour, I suddenly realized that today is Saturday, and that there are only two water buses after 9 o'clock. Immediately follow a woman who seems to be waking up and rushing to find the No. 1 water bus terminal. It was not expected that this middle-aged woman was from Liaoning Province, China. Her father had a house here and now runs a family hotel. She enthusiastically invited us to cross the river in a boat, then crossed the winding alley and quickly arrived at the railway station. Then she took the No. 41 water bus for 70 minutes to visit Brano Island. Nearly an hour after our tour of Colour Island, we left for Murano Island (Glass Island) by water bus. Most of the residents of the island make a living by manufacturing and selling glassware, and visiting several stores is a visit. Take a water bus to leave again and return to St. Mark's Square. Take the No. 2 water bus to the railway station. The effective "one-day ticket" within 24 hours allows us to use it very firmly. At the same time, we can appreciate the infinite charm of Venice's Millennium Water City from the vast water surface.

    4/5Excellent

    An amazing place to visit, but beware of restaurants that try to con you. Also, beware of pickpockets in crowded place. All the buildings are so colourful and beautiful. I guess nothing is perfect. not a city to be missed, it is so easy to get to from the airport and water taxi so easy to use as well. If not for the rude restaurant staffs, this would be 5 stars.

    In Venice, it is hard to miss the Grand Canal. It winds through the middle, and if you walk, you must know where few bridges are (tip - only four, three of them in the northern half of the city). For us, the best view is from Ponte Dell Academia, which is the only southern bridge, so you will definitely cross it at some point.

    Water City Venice, this is the real water city. The water lane asks, the slowly floating gondola carries a romantic dream. St. Mark's Square, St. Mark's Cathedral, the Bridge of Sighs, which is the good place to watch the sunset? You have an answer after a few days. I had fantasized about flying over Venice in a gondola boat, a wish I didn't expect to be realized by visual artist Raffo at this year's Venice Biennale. The Venice carnival that I have been trying to shoot has not yet achieved my wish, and I have forgotten it, looking forward to wearing a mask the day, shooting the Venice sequel.
