The story about Platonic love that the tourists create makes this city more than a charmed one. It's a treasure and bequest that this city can offer you and hug you with the magic of its grandiose soul.
More than a thousand years this city was independent and the capital of the Serenissima Venetian republic. With centuries it avoids conflict and disputes so that it could be described as "serene" just because it was always a city that preferred mediation and peace and survived centuries of political decline.
So that`s how the storytellers should begin a tale about the Floating city Venice, the beauty of the Italian coastline.
Venice is built on an archipelago of 100 small islands in the Adriatic sea. It's a city that has no roads only 150 canals that makes the city unique.
The main attractions that this city offers you are the Grand Canal, lined with 170 Renaissance and Gothic buildings, the Fenice opera house, St. Mark's Square, St. Mark Basilica that is a venture with Byzantine mosaics.
But, once you are in Venice you should go for a ride on the Gondola, which is a basic form of transportation in the city and the most popular tourist activity through the years.
