Day 1: Arrival in Venice
Venice? is romance. A bridge arching over a canal, a gondola gliding by, the moon reflecting off the water. Venice is history. The Palazzo Ducale (Doge’s Palace), Piazza San Marco, the Grand Canal, great art, and great museums. Venice is modern. The headliners and the paparazzi of the Venice Film Festival, the buzzing excitement of Carnivale.
Venice is set on islands connected by bridges, with the Grand Canal as its main thoroughfare. Traffic moves by boats that range from the traditional gondolas to refuse barges. But what makes Venice so unique also challenges its very existence. The rising sea levels of global climate change threaten the city, and now, more often than ever, high tides flood whole sections of it.
