[Back to Venice]
Venice is more than just a floating shopping mall. During the 1200 years of its history,
it has been one of the world's greatest maritime powers, and it also invented an enlightened (if somewhat
complicated!) form of democratic government long, long ago. Home to such fascinating characters as Giacomo
Casanova, beloved by centuries of famous artists, it has a fabulous story to tell -- and you should really
let yourself be captivated by this colorful tale when you first get here, so that the narrow alleys and winding
canals have some meaning for you. As of July 21, 2007, Carnival The Show is a great way to do this.
very night of the year, in a gorgeously renovated historical theatre, a sumptuous Venetian buffet is followed
by an English-language performance (with simultaneous translation into 7 other languages). The multi-media
show was created by an award-winning West End producer and acclaimed BBC director, and features live performers,
music, film projections and spectacular costumes. It's fun, it's educational, and there's unlimited food and
local wines. What better way to introduce yourself to Venezia? For information, click
