A Weekend In Venice ~ article by Neha Kirpal Venice is best enjoyed at leisure. Picture yourself in a café half submerged in water with a delicious Pizza and Pano meal, sipping coffee. This is the true image of a contemporary Venetian. So go ahead and lose yourself in a dream called Venice. The first thing to do while in Venice is to buy a day pass for travel on any of the 20,000 ferries. This would equip you with transportation for the whole day to hop from place to place. It works out much more reasonable than trying to buy a ticket every time you board a ferry. The Bridge of Sighs of Rio di Palazzo comes next with pretty gondolas strewn above the canal below it. Adding to the already romantic experience, it is said that a kiss under the bridge is supposed to bring eternal love. The Square is a crowded spectacle of lovely architectural buildings, shops, and thousands of well fed almost pot-bellied pigeons fearlessly begging for bread crumbs. As the various colors weave a sense of magical frenzy in the air, it is almost possible to imagine Shakespeare sitting around somewhere amidst the crowd of painters, singers and other artisans. No wonder, masked Casanovas are frequently spotted! The best way to explore this part is by walking through its magnificent expanse. Walk and discover hidden treasures and mysteries that make Venice truly what it is. For instance, enjoy the beautiful panel of Venetian masks elaborately designed. It is done even in this day and age, signifying grandeur and craziness - the very characteristic of the Venetian spirit! Continued next page. |

hotel through the calm of the waters that surround
you. For an authentic and rich Venetian experience,

heritage of the city, characterized by thatched roofs
and gardens. The Lido Des Bains is one that provides
it.

The Rialto Bridge that lies ahead is the most
famous bridge in Venice. It is constructed like
Alladin's cave with colorful porcelain carnival
masks, dazzling glassware, and haute couture.
Artists sit about sketching in this kaleidoscope of
artifacts, and atop a brightly-lit set of steps sit
little handcarts selling tourist trinkets like "I-was-
in-Venice" handbags. Sailing through the Grand
Canale is a magical experience. It provides a
view of all the opulent palazzos or palaces of
Venetian aristocracy. Another memorable boat
ride is along Guidecca Canal to Piazza San Marco.
Venice boasts of around 100 churches complete
with their mosaic ceilings and richly painted
murals – the kind only seen in books! It is
undoubtedly a visual treat viewing them and
stepping into them as you row around the city.
