General impressions of Venice, a maze in the water

Venice is a beautiful city that every traveller needs to see once in his life. Most streets are so narrow that it is difficult to orientate yourself. However hard you try, when you leave the wide streets, you will get lost. Make sure you have enough time to find you way back.

The city is surrounded by water and streets connected by small bridges. Just throw yourselves into the adventure of walking in these narrow alleys and see where you will end up. Most houses in the city centre are pieces of art.

Venice has a lot to offer: shopping, museums, churches, concerts, boat trips and historical buildings. There is one big disadvantage; tourists are not allowed to take pictures in any church or museum.

Venetië is een prachtige stad dat iedereen die van reizen houdt moet bezocht hebben. De meeste straten zijn zo smal dat het heel moeilijk is u te oriënteren. Hoe hard je ook probeert, eens je de hoofdwegen verlaat, zal je verloren lopen. Hou hier rekening mee zodat je genoeg tijd hebt om je weg terug te vinden.

De stad is omgeven met water en straten verbonden door kleine bruggetjes. Gooi je zelf in een avontuur, ontdek de smalle steegjes en zie waar je uit komt. De meeste huizen in het stadscentrum zijn kunstwerken. 

Venetië heeft heel veel te bieden: winkelen, musea, kerken, concerten, boottochten en historische gebouwen. Er is een groot nadeel, toeristen mogen nergens in musea of kerken foto's trekken.
