The Drowning Beauty Queen—Venice
Venice was born to be romantic and special. No other cities in the world are built on a lagoon like Venice is. Venice is also the only city where the main "street" is actually a small river. For centuries, this floating city has been a favorite of lovers, writers, artists, and businessmen. Even with her faded beauty, the Queen of the Adriatic still attracts millions of tourists every year, but Venice is not just a pretty face. For almost a thousand years in history, Venice was the most important commercial city in the world.
下沈中的「水」噹噹都市--威尼斯 威尼斯生來就是浪漫且特別的城市。世界上沒有其他的城市像威尼斯一樣建立在潟湖之上。威尼斯也是世界上唯一以一條小河為主要「道路」的城市。幾個世紀以來,這個漂浮的城市是情侶、作家、藝術家和商人的最愛。雖然她的美麗逐漸消逝,這位亞德里亞海之后每年仍然吸引數以百萬計的觀光客,但威尼斯並非是個虛有其表的城市。在歷史上有約一千年的時間,威尼斯是世界上最重要的商業都市。
