Venice? It's a twisted grid of history, all charm. Think St. Mark's Square, Grand Basilica, Doge's Palace. Rialto Bridge? Shopper's haven, killer views. Bridge of Sighs, dark history. Prisoners saw Venice last here. Salute Basilica next, haunting, plague-born.

Teatro La Fenice? Opera, fire tales. The Arsenal, old naval might, now Biennale's canvas. Biennale? Modern art's main stage. Venice streets, “Calli,” alive with buzz, cafes. Flooded streets, Acqua Alta, feels surreal. The food? Sea flavor journey. Shopping's a glass, lace treasure hunt. Gondolas, Murano glass, Film Festival – Venice packs it. From Clock Tower to Biennale gardens, sensory overload.
