Many are day-trippers, but those that stay for at least one week are rewarded with new discoveries every day.\u00a0Few\u00a0cities have been dreamt about, discussed or\u00a0resonate as much with tourists as Venice. This historic city, one of the world&#8217;s most picturesque, proudly lies on the largest island of the Venetian Lagoon. Venice has\u00a0its fair share of political and environmental problems, but\u00a0modern day commerce has done nothing to distract from its magic.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The first thing each visitor in Venice will notice is the labyrinth of streets that you can\u2019t help exploring. The best way to find yourself in Venice is to get lost,\u00a0and that&#8217;s the easy part!\u00a0Hundreds of tiny alleyways, crooked places, and canals make it almost impossible to follow a fixed route. Good luck trying to\u00a0arrive in the most direct way at your destination! It can take weeks or even months to be able to properly\u00a0find your way around Venice.<\/p>\n<p>With the greatest probability, you will discover numerous picturesque sights, buildings, and places that you had never expected. You are equally likely to end up in an empty\u00a0dead-end street, being able to enjoy this city\u2019s unique atmosphere for a moment, without crowds of people surrounding you.<\/p>\n<p>A single picture is worth a thousand words\u2026 And this video reflects the unique charm of Venice in a way that&#8217;s difficult with just words. Start exploring, discover your favourite places, and create\u00a0your own Venice experience!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GMZwLCwh2lg?list=PLNB1pyH6eZVfzbMShSy-46vHnQ-2WHnqO\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">Disclaimer: The videos in this blog are publicly available on YouTube and were not created by Apple Language Courses Ltd.

Just make sure you don&#8217;t mind getting lost at first! You should, however, take some advice: It\u2019s worth seeing several\u00a0buildings from the inside (especially the St Mark&#8217;s Basilica and the Doge&#8217;s Palace).\u00a0Try not to\u00a0worry about the expense\u00a0or waiting times, you won\u2019t regret it!<\/p>\n<p>You should also experience the beautiful view around this lagoon city from the water. Riding along the canals is possible\u00a0with the water buses (Vaporettos), water taxis\u00a0and gondolas. The water side view from the opposite shore of the Lido Island offers one of the best views over the old town.<\/p>\n<p>However much you may have already heard about this legendary city, Venice keeps its promise and will surprise you with its incredible atmosphere!<\/p>\n<p>Apple Languages offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/en\/learn\/italian\/italy\/venice.php\">Italian courses<\/a> in a school right in the city centre of Venice throughout the whole year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Famous, infamous, and much visited \u2013 Venice welcomes 20 million visitors every year.
