Think Venice and gondolas and canals spring to mind. The 'City of Canals', one of the numerous sobriquets lavished on the city, is spread across 118 islands in northeast Italy. That it has canals for roads is just one of its charms. The Venetian magic is also seen in its numerous churches and palaces, many of which are celebrated museums containing priceless art and artifacts, mouthwatering cuisine, music, and fashion. The city was associated with major art movements such as the Renaissance and was a major financial center in the 14th century.
One of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, Venice is one of those places you never forget.

Venice is not renowned for its nightlife. However, there is no shortage of great cafes, bars, theatres, and casinos. Try Caffe Florian near St. Mark's Square, the world's oldest running cafe (established in 1720). It was frequented by Charles Dickens, Marcel Proust, and Goethe. Then there's Harry's Bar, another Venice heavyweight. Located at Calle Vallaresso, the bar was apparently a favorite of Ernest Hemingway. Other notable customers included Peggy Guggenheim, Charlie Chaplin, Orson Welles, and Woody Allen. If you love music, there are great places for opera. Try the affordable Musica a Palazzo. If you want to gamble, head to the Venice Casino.
