Europe

Read about and see pictures of Venice (Italy) It was an early morning when my footsteps echoed against the tall buildings of one of the hundreds of narrow alleys in the inner bowels of Venice, La Serenissima, the most serene city. As the city was waking up, I imagined how little had changed here in some respects. Centuries ago, I would probably have met the same silence, my footsteps would have resounded in the same way. I thoroughly enjoyed walking the empty alleys and squares, hardly seeing others. Venice has always been a popular destination for people throughout the ages, for its uniqueness; it now gets so many visitors year-round that finding authentic parts of Venice is always more difficult.
