Gondola or trageda?

Traghetto (TRAGHETTO), photo GERRY BRAGUE

Be to be in Venice and do not ride a gondola? A 30-minute walk on the gondola costs from € 100, 6 people enters Gondola. But the watches of the gondolors are usually hurrying, so you will fall asleep after 20 minutes.

I recommend ride on traghetto (TRAGHETTO). In the literal sense it is a ferry, crossing the big gondola over the Gran Canal. There will be a pleasure of only € 2 per person. There are several such crossings, you will find them in signs. The tragetto 2 gondoller is managed, it is placed in it up to 12 people, it is customary to ride, but if scary, then you can sit down. Crossing lasts a few minutes.

Look for Calle Lanza to stop at about 120 meters from Santa Maria della-Salute. Stop on the other end of the large channel - Campo Del Traghetto. In the same way, they will stop at Vaporretto and return to Santa Lucia station. You can do without a gondola. Santa Maria della-Salute sits on Vapornetto number 1 and straight on the railway station.

Listen to entry

/images/vvedenie-venice1.mp3

Today we will make a fascinating tour of the island Venice, beautiful citylocated on the water.
And let's start our story with the history of this amazing city.

The emergence of Venice is closely related to the tribes of the ancient peoples - venets who settled the northwestern coastal zones The Adriatic Sea from 12-11 centuries to our era. Later, these territories were called Venusity.
In the times of the Roman Empire ancient regions Northern Italy They were united in the 10th region, which included Venusity, Istria and some other lands. In the 5th century, after the separation of the Roman Empire to Western and East, during the Great Migration of Peoples, the region was subjected to frequent attacks of the ancient German tribes, which led to a plunder and ruin of the regions. Residents of the mainland began to move on the islands of the lagoon, where new villages appeared and household zones were formed.

The official date of the founding of Venice is considered March 25, 421. But actually the formation of the city happened much later. In the 5th century, Venice was rather lagural settlements. At the end of the 7th century, the first day of Paolo Lucio Anafezto was chosen, and, probably, it was from this moment that the history of the famous city on the water begins.


Today, Venice takes not only the island of the lagoon, but also has the mainland. This is a fairly large and developed city having the largest sea \u200b\u200bport and international Airport, oil refineries and shipbuilding plants. In Venice, infrastructure and light industry are well developed, part of the economy is tourism and handicrafts.
It is believed that Venice is, above all, the city of lovers. Narrow streets, openwork bridges, water splash and many, it would seem, minor little things create a certain atmosphere, getting into which the desire disappears somewhere to hurry, I want to just enjoy it in full. But Venice is not only romance. This is a city that keeps the huge architectural heritage and numerous works of art. Thanks to this, it is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
