The mavelous City of Venice




Venice is a city in northern Italy.


It is countries capital and has a average population of 271,251 people.


The city stretches across numerous small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy.


The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers.


Venice is world-famous for its canals.


It is built on an archipelago of 122 islands formed by about 150 canals in a shallow lagoon.


In the old center, the canals serve the function of roads, and every form of transport is on water or on foot.


The classical Venetian boat is the gondola, although it is now mostly used for tourists, or for weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies.
