Description
Residences lining bridge with entrance on sidewalk level; center building with Venetian Gothic pointed arched windows; Venice is the capital of the Veneto region. In 2009, there were 270,098 people residing in Venice's entire comune; of these around 60,000 live in the historic city of Venice (Centro storico). Venice is built on an archipelago of 117 islands formed by 177 canals in a shallow lagoon, connected by 409 bridges. In the old center, the canals serve the function of roads, and almost every form of transport is on water or on foot. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 8/30/2015)
