When I told about my Venice plans, some of my friends "Wow, its beautiful"; but more than half others said, "Its crowdy, dirty, and much touristy" (Do I care? I'm an Indian💪😜) 

I have to admit the first couple of our hours in the Venice was not that great. Not because of the above reasons, but because of our poor planning & timing. First of all, our bus got so much delayed, and we lost about 40 minutes trying to find our hotel amid the alleyways. We reached our hotel only by the noon (3 hours later than we're supposed to be).

We had to have a very short lunch and run for the sight-seeing. It was very hot, we had to wait and stand in a crowded bus before we finally reach the City Bus stands.It was around 4 Ò clock in the evening, when we were presented the beautiful view of St. Mark’s square. 

But every minute, after those first couple hours was a pure delight !!!

Venice – the city is full of history, romance and grand architecture, there are countless places to visit. But, we really underestimated, had only 2 days, so focused mainly on the city's major sights and attractions.

• On day-1: We had a great trip all over the historic Basilica di San Marco and the surrounding Piazza San Marco constitute the heart of Venice. 
• On the 2nd day: We enjoyed one of the best beaches, Glass factories, and the colorful houses at the Murano and Burano’s—both neighboring islands that are just a short boat ride away.

Without any doubt, Venice is like no other city; you should experience it once in lifetime at-least. I am going to share our trips experience, combined with some of the tips & interesting facts I came across during the trips in the coming posts. Keep reading!
