To describe Venice as a unique city would be unjust.  It has more canals than roads, and pigeons than Trafalgar Square, and a winged lion as a mascot.  It is also bursting with beauty, romance and history; probably more so than anywhere in Italy, and that\'s saying something.

Arching high over the water, linking a palace with a prison, is a spectacular bridge steeped in local legends.  

Colorful houses line narrow canals at this charming island renowned for its delicate lacework.

The smallest of Venice’s six districts, this is also one of the oldest. It offers many tourist sites in its palaces, its churches and the Rialto Bridge.
