Exquisite and unique, La Serenissima is anything but serene these days, and efforts to shrug off the city´s artistic theme park status are apparent on many fronts.
Some of the architecture world´s top names are working on exciting projects; long-standing hoteliers are being forced out of their exorbitant complacency by a rash of newcomers; and a born-again community of sophisticated urban artisans is demanding (and creating) parallel eating, drinking and entertainment scenes rarely impinged upon by the ever-present tourist hordes.
Features: Venice sights; Venice hotels; Venice restaurants; venice bars; Venice shops; and Venice maps.
