Enjoying Romantic Occasions In The Marvelous Venice

I just find it a bit categorized that whenever people gossip of honeymoon, usually, the lovely floating city (more prominently known as Venice) in Italy is the one that immediately pops up in their minds. Oh, well, I guess it is indisputable that the city has already produced a good reputation in being a very favorable destination for honeymooners. Imagine yourself being with your love while riding a gondola passing through a mesh of canals and your driver is singing "O Sole Mio" to both of you under a starry night: the most romantic involvement you'll ever experience, isn't it?

Venice, an olden and now an important tourist destination is composed of 122 islands with 150 canals built on shallow lagoons where gondolas pass as the main method of transport for moving to places in the city alongside walking through its bridges. It is associated to mainland Italy by a rail station and can be reached via the newly built Marco Polo International Airport named after its most celebrated citizen, Marco Polo.

Nowadays, aside from resident Italians, Venice plays host to a range of nations like Turks, Moroccans, and others from Europe. Aside from that, it enjoys status through allusion in Shakespeare's plays and other forms of literature and also through other forms of modern mass media, from film, TV, up to video games.
