Venice

Venice has always been a dreamland for me. I first saw it in the Social Studies book. During my secondary school days, whenever my teacher was teaching the subject, I kept admiring at the pictures of the cathedral and buildings in Venice.

The place is just unique. There are no roads. You travel by small sampans(they call it sampan here.I don't know about Venice.) Because there's water everywhere. The water are their roads.

Here are some pictures of Venice.







I got this pictures from: http://www.letsgo-europe.com/Italy/Venice/

This website tells me more about the country and what are the magnificient stuff about the country. There is also travel tips of the country that they recommend. Basically, this website tells me everything that I need to know about Venice. They even state in the website to bring comfortable shoes to walk around the city.

Not just information on the tour, but the website also tells me about the history of Venice. About Marco Polo stuff....and bla bla bla...

Similar places like Venice are also being introduced to me from the website. I didn't know that there are more than one places like Venice until I visited this website. Its called Bruges or Brugge. It's in Belgium. And Venice is in Italy. Brugge is also covered in water, what I mean is that you don't travel on roads. You travel mostly on water, like Venice. More or less, Brugge is like Venice. A city compact with medieval buildings and beautiful sceneries.
