Some history and statistics

The amazing city is located in the northeast of Italy. A huge number of Christian pilgrims come here every year. And they come to the city for the sake of the relics of the Apostle Mark. His relics are kept in St. Mark's Cathedral.
The population of the city is approaching 3,000 inhabitants. Population growth does not increase, and sometimes, on the contrary, decreases. Yes, the city is good in summer time or just come here for a couple of weeks, but not everyone can live permanently in the middle of the water. Plus, every year the city floods in the fall. From the side of the sea comes the so-called surge wave, which can be very high and flood the first floors of buildings.

Venice is a major tourist center. More than twenty million people visit here every year. The tourist flow does not stop all year round, but most of the tourists arrive in the city in the summer, when you can swim in the sea.
The entire city is fully listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, under the protection of the organization is every street, every house and every stone.

The climate of Venice and the weather at different times of the year

Venice belongs to southern cities. If we draw an analogy with Russia. Then the climate of the Italian city resembles the climate of the Krasnodar Territory and the Crimea. There is always a long and hot summer, and in winter the temperature is around 2-4 degrees with a plus sign. Sometimes there are slight frosts in winter. There were cases when, due to frost, the water in the city on the streets froze. Hundreds of thousands of tourists came to see this miracle of nature.
The city receives a lot of rainfall. There are at least five rainy days in any month of the year. Also in any month, the average rainfall is always above 50 millimeters. And more than 800 millimeters can fall in a year.

Economy of Venice

Such a city simply by definition cannot be deprived of the attention of tourists. Therefore, the main income of the city and local residents is tourism. Thanks to tourists, the city thrives and is economically developed. Also, because of the tourists, there are still such professions as a boatman. After all, someone needs to carry tourists through the streets in boats. There are also many mosaic masters here - the works of the masters are bought up by tourists and such works are worth a lot.
Near Venice there is a seaport. Every year there are more than 600 cruise ships, and over a thousand merchant ships. Near the city there are oil refineries, chemical enterprises. Their emissions adversely affect not only the climate and atmosphere, but also buildings in the water. Due to various kinds of emissions, corrosion of the base of houses in the water occurs. Therefore, houses have to be constantly repaired, for which a lot of money is spent.

Getting ready for a trip to Venice. Tourist maps of sights and routes around Venice are on the agenda

The easiest way to have a tourist map of Venice on hand is to immediately purchase it from the kiosk upon arrival Guide to Venice. Maybe this is not the most modern solution, but in most cases the most convenient. Not everyone knows how to use a smartphone at 100%, and in most cases, using a smartphone as an electronic guide requires a permanent connection to the Internet, which is not always available, and sometimes unreasonably expensive. So the "grandfather's method" will still be relevant for quite a long time :)

Nevertheless, in order to prepare for a trip, plan an interesting itinerary in advance, or book a hotel in a suitable location, it is very good to have visual maps or diagrams at hand that you may find useful. Here are some of these maps we offer you to download. To see the full size image just click on the image. To save, right-click and select "Save As..."

Trying to deal with the Venetian districts, tourists need to understand that geographically this city as a municipality includes the island and the mainland.

So, Venice includes the island lagoons of Lido, Murano, Burano, etc., as well as mainland areas, for example, Mestre.

But we are more interested in the "old" Venice - its central island part, for which the main flow of tourists comes here.

So, the "classic" areas of Venice are:

center- Piazza San Marco, named after St. Mark - the patron saint of the city;

San-Polo- another area in the center of Venice: on its territory there are many churches, including St. Paul, which gave the name to this part of the city;

The largest district of ancient Venice;

When deciding which area of ​​Venice to stay, focus on the cost of living and the concentration of attractions. For example, Cannaregio and Santa Croce are relatively inexpensive areas of Venice, where it is better to live for those who are not afraid of long walks to the main tourist sites and want to save money.

There is no such thing as dangerous areas of Venice - crime in this city is at a very low level. The main thing is to follow the simplest safety rules: do not leave valuables in the car and watch your wallet, especially in crowded places.
