Seeing Venice from the Air... Ahhhhhhh,
By Shenandoah Shores (West Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Venice From The Air (Hardcover)
This hardcover photo journal of one of the most beautiful cities in the world exceeded my expectations. Although the photography is 20+ years old, the glory that is Venice remains virtually unchanged from then to now.The photographs show all the natural beauty and wonder of the canals and islets, marshes, beaches, vineyards and lagoons. As well, you will see the incredible density and magnificence of the architecture, bridges, plazas, and parks. Basilicas, bell towers, palaces, former monasteries, museums, merchants, docks, gondolas, power boats. The vantage point of 'Venice from the Air' gives you a clear view of a physically isolated but densely built, historically important city. Its islands and islets are accessible by water or connected by elaborate footbridges. Venice is said to be the most walkable city in the world due to the absence of cars. We spent a week there recently and could easily have enjoyed a month. Getting up each morning and getting 'lost' in Venice is a worthy pursuit. This book invites you to discover the magnificence of Venice from 'on high'. |
