Interesting Features of Venice

Venice is very different from anywhere else we have been to. Modern development is minor, and interestingly superimposed upon the older construction. These are a small collection of interesting things we saw on our first day!

A petrol station in Venice

Gondola repair yard

Grand door knocker

Barrier to keep the tide out

In every square there are covered wells, they are actually cisterns, underground water tanks

Cruise ships are not popular because of the damage they are doing

No where else can you catch a gondola
