Venice

Venice, or Venezia, is the favorite city of almost everyone who has been there. It has attracted writers over the centuries, many of them British or American. Shakespeare probably never went there, and Joyce(as far as I know) may not have written about it, but James, Forster, Mann and others certainly did both.

I have been lucky enough to visit there, and here are some pictures which remind me of its beauty.

Above is the various shots of the Piazza San Marco, Venice's most prominent attraction.
