Discover the beautiful city of Venice

Exploring Venice is a fascinating journey through time, amidst the secrets and wonders of this unique city. Across epochs of changes and transitions under various rulers, Venice secured its independence. In the 15th century, it reached the pinnacle of global trade, adorning itself with sumptuous palaces. However, the discovery of America led to a shift in trade, weakening its supremacy.

In response, the Venetians reinvented themselves, directing the economy towards agriculture. In the 18th century, Venice shone as one of Europe’s most influential cities, boasting artistic, architectural, and agricultural wealth. It became part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1805.

Every corner of Venice offers incredible and unforgettable views. Since 1987, “Venice and its Lagoon” has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

St. Mark’s Square, with its imposing Basilica and the Campanile, is the focal point of this city suspended between water and history. The Rialto Bridge, an undisputed icon, offers a breathtaking view of the Grand Canal, while the Doge’s Palace narrates the intrigues of Venetian power through its sumptuous rooms.

Gondoliers transport visitors on a romantic journey through the canals of this charming city. Murano, the glass island, unveils the secrets of an ancient craft in its furnaces, while at sunset, Venice adorns itself with golden reflections, revealing its romantic soul.
