Take the first step out of the vaporetto and there they are. The colourful fairy-tale houses of Burano. Burano - first sight, Venice, Italy It’s easy to reach the island of Burano by vaporetto. The trip lasts less than an hour (you can stop at Murano to buy some glass jewellery) and the island is quite small so you can visit Murano, Burano and Torcello in one day.

When preparing for the trip from Venice to Torcello take into account the time needed for the trip itself (about 1 hour from Fondamente Nuove to Torcello, changing the vaporetto on Burano), the opening hours of the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta with the bell tower, the Santa Fosca Church and the archaeological museum. A vaporetto gives you an opportunity to reach Torcello while experiencing breathtaking views of the lagoon of Venice and some aspects of the life of the local inhabitants.

Yes, we definitely like travelling. But we definitely like animals too. So it’s inevitable that while travelling we pay attention to (almost) any living forms;-)) What does a dog’s life look like in a city situated on water for example? Not that bad, I must say. The one we saw had its own boat;-) A dog in a boat in Venice, Italy The other one seemed to be the owner of a mask-selling shop.
