About This Trip
Venice is the world's most improbable city — 118 islands linked by 400 bridges, built on wooden piles driven into a lagoon over a thousand years ago. Every canal, every campo, every peeling façade is a work of art. The trick is to arrive early, stay in the sestieri, and walk everywhere without a map.
