Let’s preserve this amazing time capsule, a living bit of history you can visit.
Venice In Danger
Please visit Venice, but do so sustainably.
Cannaregio Canal
We usually think of darkness, fog, rain, mist, night as things that conceal and foster mystery. That calculus is turned on its head in Venice, where night and weather reveal the mystery, the romance rather than obscure them.
Christmas in Venice with RoboCop
This is a great read from a great actor who had the experience so many a tourist has had at first with Venice, only to come to love it for what it is once he had the chance to circumnavigate the tourist traps and experience the real Venice deeply and fully.

What Is Prosecco, Anyway?
Not just any sparkling white wine from Italy, mind you. This is a quick but insightful piece on what exactly prosecco denotes. We’re planning on doing some more exploring of this region soon and will have reports…stay tuned! Thanks Dream of Venice for posting this.

Venice At The Dawn Of WW2
Dream of Venice shared this quaint look at Venice in 1940; a dark shadow was descending over Europe at that time, making for a scarily uncertain atmosphere for all Europeans, but the people in this seem charmed, alive, and blissfully unaware of the horrors in the offing for so many of their neighbors. That so many of Italy’s treasures survived the first and second world wars is something pretty remarkable when you stop to think about it.
