Pensions in Venice
The city of Venice is built along a series of hundreds of island at the edge of the Adriatic Sea, and it is one of the truly romantic cities of the world. Even more than the watery setting, tourists are drawn to Venice for the city's contributions to the arts. Teatro La Fenice is one of Europe's principle opera houses and a leading venue for Venice Biennale, which on odd years is a celebration of contemporary art and on even years features the projects of modern architects. Exhibits are arranged by nation with over 30 nations represented. Many nations take the chance very seriously by involving heads of state in determining the entries. Also part of the Biennale is the Venice Film Festival and an international competition of contemporary dance, which makes the Venice Biennale an Olympics for the arts. Venice is most quickly recognized for its canals and the iconic gondola. Once used as the primary form of public transportation, gondolas are now are largely ceremonial now and used for tourists and special occasions. Water travel by gondola has been largely replaced by the water bus. Cable cars and buses serve much of the city.
