Venice
Venice is a major seaport and the capital of the region of Veneto in northern Italy. An island city, it was once the center of a maritime republic. It was the greatest seaport in late medieval Europe and the continent’s commercial and cultural link to Asia. Environmentally, architecturally, and historically, Venice is unique among cities. There is no place like it. Facing the Adriatic Sea, Venice is one of the world’s oldest tourist and cultural centers.
In 1987 Venice and its lagoon were collectively designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
