    Italy

    There are [5] photos and [1] story about Italy

    Venice is one of Europe's biggest tourist destinations. A brief walk and several bridges later and you may literally pass thousands of people. Rain, hail or shine, the tourists worm their way into every corner of the city. If you finally get sick of bumping shoulders, or become hopelessly lost, you can always jump in a Gondola. by: will_eades Views[252] A tourist picks out a Guy Fawkes mask with his partner. Every year Venice celebrates the legendary Carnivale festival, where the masqueraders take to the streets in their lavish costumes. Each outfit is topped off with a stunning mask. Some sequinned and gentile and others downright haunting. Choosing the right one is crucial to the role you wish to portray. by: will_eades Views[804] A local busker smiles as he plays a familiar tune on his accordion. I dropped a coin into his shoebox and he quietly thanked me in Italian. This was the moment, with music bouncing off every time-warn surface, that I understood the allure of Venice. by: will_eades Views[191] Venetian architecture and design, though visually breathtaking, can also be a confronting aspect of the city. As if designed by someone equally brilliant and mad, the narrow pathways form an intricate maze. Hidden alleys seem to fold in upon you, their bricks covered in centuries of paint, grit and weather. They are a constant reminder of the ancient properties of this unique place. by: will_eades Views[222] The Grand Canal dominates the Floating City. Lined with piers, moorings, and every form of vessel imaginable, Venice's arterial waterway is a bustling freeway of life. The Gothic buildings appear impossibly buoyant as the mild wakes of passing boats lap against their foundations. by: will_eades Views[174]
