City of Bridges or City of Masks—Venice, with its various nicknames and ornate islands, wears many stylish hats. Where else can you go from nostalgic gondola ride to an avant-garde art event? The splendour of elegant architecture floating on a lagoon has inspired Baroque concertos, masked carnivals and epic operas. Wash down the waterfront grandeur at a local bacaro with cicchetti and prosecco.
