Describe the city, which is located on 122 islands, which connect 400 bridges is simply impossible, it needs to be seen, and if you still enhance and doubt or not - then, of course, go, but only worth being ready for small inconveniences and difficulties, actually These unusual difficulties expect everyone to descend to Venice for the first time. In Venice, there are so many architectural, cultural and historical attractions that the whole old part of the city is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage List.
In this city you will not see any trams or buses or route taxis, urban transport here is Vaporetto, they go through all the channels and run between all the islands. If you need to move to the other side of the channel there are small ferries, all this is worth the money, but just in this city, sometimes walking on foot is not very convenient. It is a little unpleasant pleasing the lack of really good restaurants, prices can be royal, but the food is second-speed.
In the summer, in Venice there is a fairly specific smell, as water blooms and the villages of buildings are missing, it is also worth being ready.
Mostly, tourists go to look at the city and ride the gondolas, but here there is a good sandy and what a free beach is located for several stops from San Marco Square, stop Lido.
In Venice, first of all it is worth going to see the Grand Canal, which leads to the famous Palazzo Dukkale (the Doge Palace).
Everything is worth seeing here! In the literal sense of the word, all churches, all basilica, all museums. Probably this is the only city with such a huge collection of museums, exhibitions and galleries.
In order to see everything, you need two weeks if not more, but it is worth it.
With children, probably travel here it will be difficult, because kids can point on trips through the channels or they just get tired of constantly looking at historical sights. Most likely, this is a cultural holiday for adults.
