6. Venice

Venice (City of water), Italy

Venice is a city in north-eastern Italy sited on a group of 118 small islands separated by canals and linked by bridges.Venice is one of Italy's cities and a beautiful, romantic destination with many attractions. Its small, traffic-free streets along the winding canals make for great walking. You will find many magnificent churches and palaces, lively squares, and interesting shops. Venice is indeed unique and there are no cars or buses on the island. There is water everywhere.

The most famous is the area comprising the 118 islands in the main districts that are called "Sestieri" and they are: Cannaregio, Castello, Dorsoduro, San Polo, Santa Croce and San Marco, where the main monuments and sights are located.

Rialto Bridge

The Rialto Bride is the famous bridge in Venice, Italy. There are a lot of restaurants around the bridge.In night, the bridge will be nice look so that a bit of travellers with their lover will get their dinner around the restaurant to see this beautiful bridge, this is very romantic place in Venice. Enjoy Italian style pasta and have a glass of wine, that is amazing at the time.

Backstreet canals

Venice is very special place for me and it also a romantic place especially in night. After dark, the traveller will disappear and this is the perfect time to take a stroll through the lamp-lit and alleyways and backstreet.  In this time, the traveller can be listen to the gentle sound of the water lapping and watch the things that boatman introduce their way through the canals by torchlight.

Saint Mark’s Basilica is a spectacular cathedral with a beautiful gold mosaic ceiling. It was originally the chapel of the Doge, but in 1807 it became the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archidiosese of Venice. Climb the stairs and head out onto the terrace, where you’ll be presented with brilliant views over St Mark’s Square.
In Venice, you can be fun in shopping at there because there are many shops selling other things like bags and clothing especially local made leather bag. It is beautiful and dignity.

Opinion:
Venice!! The only one city built on water in the world. In Venice, you will notice that there is not any smell of cigarettes from car and motorbike. And also, you may a chance to walk in water but don't worry, the water just only flood until foot.
