A friend and I went last year and it is by far my favorite city. Gorgeous!!! We ended up staying fairly cheaply right near St Mark's Square. I believe it was the Ca' Residenza or something to that effect. We stayed 6 days and it wasn't enough. Definitely book a hotel beforehand unless money is no object (I WISH!!). And as another poster said, don't just stick to the touristy parts, walk around. One of my favorite memories of it was when we were just wandering around just before dusk and came upon a quiet, secluded, little square. It was in an actual neighborhood part that wasn't touristy. We bought some pizza slices from a vendor and sat down to eat right as a street musician started playing beautiful music that seemed to just fit the mood. It felt like right then I knew why they call it La Serenissima.

Venice (Venezia) actually wants number release, see how to get there with hotelbye . That city has been a fabled destination for centuries. Just the name Venice will do to conjure up a bunch of photographs, even for those who have not even collection base in Italy. From gondoliers in striped jerseys to the Rialto and the Bridge of Sighs, criminal balls, golden barges, courtesans in gondolas and failing palaces experiencing streets made from water Venice is an incredible city. Once the only link throughout the Grand Canal, Rialto Bridge scars the spot of the island's first settlement, named Rivus Altus and is currently among the lots of place that Venice needs to offer.

Yes, I have been in Venice and yes, I like it very much! The city is unique, so charming and romantic... Venice looks gorgeous in spring and I was lucky to be there just then. I would love to go back there again and again...

Venice is utterly gorgeous. If you are planning a trip to Venice, then I definitely suggest that Venice should be on your itinerary. It is a different experience seeing the gondolas and riding the waterbuses as a form of public transportation.

Venice is wonderful in all ways, very unusual, very very old.
We were there on Christmas Eve, and it was very strange, I loved it. The city seemed completely empty...it was very cold.
It is the best place in the world to take pictures, too.
Great shopping, and everything is unique and interesting. You must walk everywhere, so you are in a different world than usual. The other delightful thing is that there is no noise from cars and traffic----it's quiet and mystical, like you are in another reality.
There are wonderful movies that give you a lot of the "mood" of Venice, but they are only an introduction....

O man.. i use to think.. "Venice... must be over rated" I was sooo extremely wrong!
It's magical.. i don't know how else to put it.. stay there for maybe 4 days so you don't get tired of it. It's absolutely beautiful... the sky and the water, the cozy streets and good looking people. The restaurants. It's a gorgeous place!

Been there five time.... loved it. It's very romantic and the center is fun, but don't just stay in the tourist areas. Walk around and explore all of Venice!
Happy Travels!
