OCTOBER IN VENICE There are several reasons to recommend a visit to Venice, even more so if it falls in the month of October. First and foremost, the mild climate that heralds the winter season but also offers the pleasures that only a few cities can provide. But what to recommend?... Without a doubt, the simplest things. For example, getting intoxicated by a lagoon sunset or strolling until you get lost (only to find yourself again) along the labyrinth of alleys; crossing the Grand Canal by water aboard one of the last gondola ferries or being captivated by the multitude of shop windows and boutiques, or yet, enjoying an aperitif, a coffee, an ice cream, a dinner while savoring the city's small squares or climbing one of the many bell towers and being enchanted by a bird's-eye view.

MUOVERSI

A VENEZIA

Sono molte le opportunità per girare e scoprire Venezia.

La prima scelta, forse la migliore, è senza dubbio – grazie alle sue distanze ridotte

- quella di muoversi a piedi. A volte però, la mancanza di tempo, i bagagli pesanti e,

non ultimo, l’impossibilità fisica di attraversare la laguna diventa comodo, oltre che

piacevole dal punto di vista paesaggistico, salire a bordo di un mezzo di trasporto.

Nella città lagunare non esistono bus, ne metro, ne auto-taxi e… nemmeno biciclette.

Ecco allora che i mezzi di trasporto pubblici sono vaporetti o battelli (così li chiamano

da un vecchio retaggio i veneziani) e motoscafi veloci, chiamati “lance”, che fanno la

funzione dei taxi, fino ad arrivare a quel mezzo, tra i più iconici al mondo, che per secoli

ha contraddistinto il trasporto di persone lungo i rii (canali) della città: la gondola.

Ecco qualche nota a riguardo per chi appunto, appena arrivato a Venezia, volesse

spostarsi usando i mezzi di navigazione.
