Hello ladies and gents this is the viking telling you that today we are going to the beautiful city of.
Every February, the city hosts their traditional Carnival where more than three million people dress up in masquerade costumes and dance until dawn. What makes this party different? It dates to Renaissance times. Venetians wear gilded white masks, and the theatrical outfits range from black capes to ball gowns and feathered hats. It’s a spectacular sight to see.
VENICE
Venice is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region. It is situated across a group of 118 small islands that are separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges. The islands are located in the shallow Venetian Lagoon, an enclosed bay that lies between the mouths of the Po and the Piave rivers (more exactly between the Brenta and the Sile). Parts of Venice are renowned for the beauty of their settings, their architecture, and artwork. The lagoon and a part of the city are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
PLACES TO SEE
Grand Canal
If crowded water boats aren't your style, take a private water taxi. It might be pricier, but the most scenic routes are down in the small canals, where you can slow down for photo-ops. Some boats even serve on-board champagne. This indulgence is pricier than public transport, but it’s a great idea if you're traveling in a group and want to indulge in water-borne transport (it’s often cheaper than gondolas, too).
Caffè Florian
Set in the heart of San Marco Square, Caffé Florian is legendary. This iconic slice of Venetian history has been a hallmark of royalty since 1720, attracting celebrities over the centuries from Charlie Chaplin to Andy Warhol, and its décor hasn’t changed much since the 18th century. Try the risotto—or for something sweet, the gourmet chocolates, specialty coffees and ice-cold gelato. The patio is perfect in the summer.
Carnevale Festival
Every February, the city hosts their traditional Carnival where more than three million people dress up in masquerade costumes and dance until dawn. What makes this party different? It dates to Renaissance times. Venetians wear gilded white masks, and the theatrical outfits range from black capes to ball gowns and feathered hats. It’s a spectacular sight to see.
