Venice is a beautiful water city, built in the most impossible place-water. The amorous feelings of Venice are always inseparable from "water", winding water lanes and flowing blue waves. It is like a romantic dream floating on the blue waves, and its poetry lingers for a long time. The construction method of this city once held the most powerful manpower, material resources and strength in Europe. The historical stage of Venice
Biography began in 453 AD; At that time, farmers and fishermen in Venice turned to this Adriatic island to avoid the cool nomadic people who loved swords. Venice looks like a dolphin. Its urban area is less than 7.8 square kilometers, but it is composed of 1 18 small islands and 177 canals. These islands and canals are connected by about 40 1 bridge. The whole city is connected with the Italian mainland peninsula only by a long dike. Venice is still a prosperous town, where people have good living conditions. The construction method here is to first lay large wooden stakes on the underwater soil, one by one, which is the foundation. After the stake is firmly nailed, the board is laid and the house is built. All the houses there are built like this. So some people say that there are stones above Venice and forests below. In order to build Venice, all the forests in northern Italy were cut down. Such a house, don't worry about underwater wood rot, will not rot, and will become harder and harder, and will become stronger and stronger for a long time. Previously, archaeologists excavated the former residence of Kyle Poirot, and the excavated wood was as hard as iron, and only the water would rot. Satellite map of Venice
Venice's fertile alluvial soil, stones made of local materials, and boats made of wood from neighboring inland areas shuttle through it; In the mud, the ancestors built Venice on the water. This city, which is less than 8 square kilometers, is cut into more than 100 islands by more than 100 cobweb canals. These islands are only connected with each other by various bridges. When you are new here, you will soon get lost in this "water city" and can't find your way. Fortunately, there is an S-shaped Grand Canal running through the whole city. Along this so-called "the longest street in Venice", you can enjoy the essence of Venice without worrying about getting lost. There are nearly 200 palaces, mansions and 7 churches along the coast, most of which were built in the 14 to 16 century, with Byzantine style, Gothic style, Baroque style and Venetian style. All the building foundations are submerged in the water, which looks like an art gallery rising in the water. On weekdays, the Grand Canal is really like a busy street, and all kinds of ships shuttle through it. Of course, the most unique is gondola.

Venice has the Phoenix Opera House, the bridge of lamentation written by Xu Zhimo, the great Renaissance and Byzantine architecture, one of the most beautiful squares in the world-St. Kyle Square, the breathtaking cloister, the rainbow island full of romance and the glass island full of humor ... Some of the most beautiful passages in antonioni's films were shot here. This is the essence of the Renaissance. Venice is a world-famous water city, and its beauty is composed of water and bridges. Today, it is the only city in the world without cars. The special scenery of the streets and lanes of Venice Watertown. Some waterways are narrower than hutongs in Beijing, so two boats can't sail at the same time, so they can only take one road. There are old houses on both sides of the street, and most of the bottom floors are residents' boathouses. Connecting the two sides of the street are all kinds of stone bridges or wooden bridges. They cross the street high and don't hinder navigation at all. Bridges and water streets in Venice crisscross and run through the surrounding area. People use boats instead of cars and bridges instead of roads. Both land and water are crowded with tourists, and pigeons and seagulls fly together, forming the unique life interest of this world-famous water city. Among many bridges in Venice, the most famous one is Rialto Bridge, which leads to the city center together with the railway station, also known as the commercial bridge. It is all made of white marble and is a symbol of Venice. The bridge is 48 meters long, 22 meters wide and 7 meters above the water. Both ends of the bridge are supported by 12000 stakes inserted into the water. There is a pavilion in the middle of the bridge, which spans the Grand Canal. Ships, large and small, only shuttle through the bridge opening in the shape of the sun. Rialto Bridge was built at 1 180. It was originally a wooden bridge, but later it was changed into a suspension bridge. 1444 In a celebration, the bridge was broken because it was overwhelmed. From 1580 to 1592, it was rebuilt into the present stone bridge. There is a floating pavilion at the top of the bridge, and there are more than 20 jewelry stores and souvenir stalls on both sides of the bridge. Venice has many historical sites, including 120 churches, including Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches. In addition, there are 120 bell towers, 64 monasteries for men and women, and more than 40 palaces built by water, all of which are very unique across the river. The buildings in Venice have different architectural styles, and the doors, windows and corridors of the houses are carved with exquisite patterns and patterns. Boating in Venice at night is unique. Every year, thousands of tourists come to Venice, Italy to feel its beauty, warmth and romance. Venice has a history of hundreds of years, and the construction of Venice began in 453 AD.
The unique Venetian ship has a unique name-"gondola" (Italian "gondola", also translated as "gondola" or "gondola"). This light, slender and unique boat has always been a means of transportation for Venetians living in lagoons. According to 1094, its name comes from the first governor in the 7th century. Pontoon boats have a very long history. 1 1 century is the most popular period in gondola. At that time, the number of gondolas exceeded 1 10,000, but now there are only a few hundred gondolas left in Venice. Although the number is only one twentieth of that of18th century, it is gratifying that small shipyards like San trova Suo are still making and repairing such ships, which makes this ancient Venetian tradition spread. Gondola has a variety of designs. /kloc-In the 6th century, the appearance of gondola was extremely gorgeous, and nobles often showed off their wealth in beautifully carved gondola decorated with silks and satins. In order to curb this extravagant atmosphere, the Venetian Senate issued a ban: it is not allowed to put any decorations showing off family status on pointed boats, and the installed ones must be removed, and all gondolas are painted black. The only decoration left is the bow panel. This tradition has been maintained, and now gondola is also a unified black, which will only be decorated as a flower boat on special occasions. There are two parts of this ship that can embody the imagination of craftsmen. One is a handsome bow, much like the six-toothed halberd used in 15 and16th century. (Each tooth represents a district of Venice), and the other tooth is Ionian Stern. By the18th century, the shape and size of this Venetian pointed ship will gradually be fixed to what we are today. Today, this ship is generally10.75m long and10.75m wide. The flat bottom of the boat is asymmetric, and the balance of the boat can be maintained only by one side. In previous gondolas, the middle cabin also had a movable canopy to shield passengers from the sun and rain. Some canopies have small windows and sliding doors. Later, this awning also disappeared. Gondola boatmen now only wear striped tight knit tops and a straw hat. In the past, boatmen's uniforms were very strange and elegant. When rowing, the boatman stood at the stern, and a long single paddle was placed on the curved paddle rack. On weekdays, gondola is the main tourist boat, and the cost of taking gondola is relatively expensive, with an average of about 70~ 120 euros every 40 minutes. On the first Sunday afternoon in September every year, a Regata Storica, a traditional gondola boat race with a long history, will be held on the Venice Grand Canal. Venice regatta originated from 13 15 according to historical records.
St. Kyle Square and St. Kyle Church are one of the most famous places of interest in Venice. St. Kyle Square is more than 70 meters long from east to west, 80 meters wide from east and 55 meters wide from west, with a total area of about 1000 square meters. Their beautiful and harmonious shapes and vivid stone carvings can be said to be rare masterpieces in ancient Roman architecture. The south, north and west sides of the square are surrounded by magnificent palace buildings. These buildings are harmonious and beautiful, and the stone carvings on them are lifelike. In the east stands the 98.6-meter-high St. Kyle Bell Tower and the St. Kyle Church, which combines eastern and western architectural arts. To the west are the Governor's Office and the St. Kyle Library. The neat and gorgeous Governor's Office has pink and sighing bridges.
Connecting the Governor's Mansion and the nearby dungeon, there is a very famous Bridge of Sighs, which is one of the must-see attractions in Venice. Bridge of Sighs belongs to the early Baroque style. The bridge is in the shape of a house, covered by a dome, and closed tightly, except for two small windows by the canal. Sigh Bridge is an arcade bridge, which is built on the river between the governor's office and the prison and enjoys a high reputation. Built in 1600 (other materials: 1603). It was named after the condemned man passed by here when he was taken to the execution ground. When prisoners are tried in the governor's office, felons are taken to the dungeon and may die forever. In the past, condemned prisoners had to cross this closed bridge when they walked to the execution ground. They can only look at the blue sky through the small window, think of the family waiting to say goodbye on the boat under the bridge, and have mixed feelings. They can't help but sigh-going forward will say goodbye to everything in the world. It is said that lovers can kiss under the bridge forever. There is a legend that a man was sentenced and walked across the bridge. "Take one last look!" The jailer said, stop the man at the window. The window lattice is beautifully carved and consists of many eight-petal chrysanthemums. Looking down from the window lattice, the man saw a narrow and long gondola passing under the bridge, and a man and a woman were sitting on the boat kissing. That woman turned out to be his lover. The man frantically crashed into the flower window, which was made of thick marble and didn't break, leaving only a pool of blood and an angry body. Blood didn't drip from the bridge, nor did the roar come out. Even if you say it, the kissing woman can't hear it. The blood has been washed away, and the tragic story has been forgotten by most people. Just say this is the "bridge of sighs", the last look of the prisoner. Let's turn that tragedy into a comedy and call it a myth. The movie "Love Will Sunset Down the Bridge" was shot here. The Bridge of Sigh connects the Governor's Mansion and Venice Prison at both ends, which is the only way for ancient courts to escort death row inmates to the prison.
port
Venice Port is one of the largest ports in Italy, with a length of 12km and a total area of 250 hectares. It stretches and is vast, with 10,000 ships entering and leaving the port every year.
Above. Venice is not only unique in scenery, but also a famous cultural city. As early as the Renaissance, the Venetian school of painting was unique. Giorgione, Titian, Tintoretto and Willoni are all famous masters of painting. Venice also occupies an important position in the history of Italian opera art. There are many historical sites in the city, including 120 Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, 120 bell towers, 64 monasteries for men and women, more than 40 palaces and many beaches. Goethe and Byron both praised Venice, while Napoleon called it "a rare miracle city in the world".
So far, there are 404 bridges in Venice, which have different shapes and styles. Some are like Youlong, some are like flying rainbow, some are solemn, and some are small. The most famous one is Liard Bridge, which is a single-span arch bridge made of marble and built around 1592. The bridge is 48 meters long and 22 meters wide. It once appeared in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. Shakespeare's great literary masterpiece The Merchant of Venice describes the Venice Bridge that happened here.
Story: For centuries, The Merchant of Venice has been put into film and television by later generations and spread to the world in the form of drama and opera. No vehicles can enter Venice, so all the means of transportation in the city are boats. There are fixed lines and boat stops like buses, and you can also take a taxi like a taxi. The unique means of transportation in Venice is an ancient sightseeing boat, which Venetians call "gondola" and is a unique "taxi" in Venice. "gondola" has a long and narrow hull with an inclined head and tail, which is most suitable for driving in narrow water lanes. The ferryman wears traditional black and white clothes, a straw hat with a red hoop, and paddles with one paddle, which is very skilled. Gondola's production is rigorous and exquisite: length 10.75m, width 1.75m, oak board and black paint for seven times. It was full of six people, plus a boatman. Take the "gondola", with the melodious music of ancient accordion and other musical instruments, walk through the quaint ancient water city and admire the ancient buildings on both sides of the "street", and the scenes of daily life in ancient Venice vaguely emerge in my mind. It's a rare treat. If you go to the square again to enjoy an absolutely authentic Italian fast food, spaghetti or pizza and Italian beer, that kind of cozy and romantic feeling will arise spontaneously and make you more intoxicated! Venice Waterway and the famous boat "gondola" Venice Bridge.
Venice's waterways are world-famous. 1 18 island on the lagoon is interwoven by 150 waterway. The islands that make up Venice have about 400 bridges. In the center of the old city, canals have replaced the functions of highways, so the main modes of transportation are walking and water transportation. /kloc-a railway station was established in the 0/9th century, and the railway embankment connected the northwest of the main island of Venice with the Italian peninsula. In the 20th century, highway causeways and parking lots were added. The northwest of Venice's main island has thus become the entrance of railways and highways. The central old city is a pedestrian zone with narrow streets, and it is the largest car-free zone in Europe. In 2 1 century, this car-free city is quite unique. At present, Saint Lucia Station is the only railway station in Venice. "gondola" is the most representative and orthodox water vessel in Venice. But now Venetians usually use the economical water bus to cross the main waterways of the city and other small islands in Venice. The international airport in Venice is Kelpolo International Airport, named after the famous Venetian Kelpolo. The airport is built on the Italian peninsula on the other side of Venice, far from the coastline, but the water transport to Venice is only 7 minutes' walk from the pier.
1. In addition, there are some scenic spots along the 1 road, so you can disembark at any time. The most famous is Rialto Bridge. 2. When Lido's boat approached the shore of St. Kyle Square, the scenery on the shore was spectacular. In the evening, there is a huge ship passing by the coast near St. Kyle Square, which is too beautiful to miss. 4. Take a boat from the train station to Glass Island. After landing, someone will show you the glass blowing technology, and then take a look at the glass products coming out of the island. 5.

Carnival in Venice is very famous in history. It was restored on 1979 and is now one of the four major carnivals in the world. When a person wears a mask, he loses his identity and gains freedom. He can be presumptuous and indulgent. This is why many people like carnival. It is said that during the festival, they will say to each other, "Hello, Mr. Mask." After all, there are not many tourists who can catch the carnival at Christmas. It is much more convenient to buy a mask, and it is not very expensive to buy a few small masks as souvenirs. There are also tourists who buy a clown hat and parade in the street, having a good time. Since you are in Venice, you might as well be presumptuous.

1March, 980, Venice and Suzhou, China became the "twin cities". Therefore, the Italians here are particularly enthusiastic about China guests. Venice is also the prototype of Anatoly, the "water capital" in Peter's film version: patron saint of water capital; Mercury navigators are also based on Venice. The city called "New Venice" on Mars is modeled after Venice on the earth and has many historical buildings. At the same time, many traditional ceremonies in Venice, Italy have also been passed down. On September 14, 2003, scientists from all over the world gathered in Cambridge, England to hold a large-scale international conference. It is reported that this meeting was organized by the Venice Crisis Foundation, a Venice charity, to discuss how to save the Italian water city Venice. Scientists attending the meeting pointed out that from 1950 to now, the population of Venice has dropped from 15000 in that year to 58000 (the other two figures: "about 654380+000" and "Venice population 370000" are quite different). 1900, the largest square in the center of Venice was flooded only 10 times a year, but now, St. Kyle's square is flooded at least 100 times a year. Compared with 100 years ago, the water level in Venice is now 23 cm higher. If effective measures are not taken to save Venice, Venice will be completely submerged and uninhabitable by 2 100. Because there are many canals in Venice, the main means of transportation in Venice is speedboat.
1932 Venice Film Festival, the first film festival in the world, was 14 years earlier than Cannes Film Festival and 19 years earlier than Berlin Film Festival. From the end of August to the beginning of September every year, Venice, an Italian water city, is the focus of the world film industry.
prize
At the beginning, the main awards of the film festival were divided into "best foreign language film", "best Italian film", "best director", "best actor" and "best actress". The first Venice Film Festival did not have a fixed jury, and the audience voted for their favorite films and actors. The result was so strange that even Mickey Mouse was chosen as the best actor.
close
Venice Film Festival was once controlled by the fascist government, and the trophy was called Mussolini Cup. 1938, Cannes Film Festival came into being in order to fight against the Venice Film Festival controlled by fascism. Venice Film Festival awards from 1938 to 1942 are not recognized by future generations. 1943 to 1945, the film festival was closed because of the war.
resuscitation
Venice Film Festival really formed its own style after 1946 reopened. The French movie master won Renoir's Best International Film Award for Southerner. Since then, "Mistress Manon" and "Revenge of the Prince" have won awards one after another, showing the extraordinary artistic atmosphere of the film festival. 1949, the film festival officially renamed the highest award "Best International Film" as "St. Mark's Golden Lion Award"; 1953 withdrew the "Best Italian Film" and added the "Silver Lion Award of Saint Mark", which showed the ambition of internationalization and artistry of Venice Film Festival.
location
Venice is characterized by the principle of independence and the spirit of adventure, with the aim of "movies serve serious art" and the criterion of "artistry". Cannes Film Festival pays attention to the commercialization and artistry of films, while Berlin Film Festival pays attention to ideology.
trend
In 1990s, due to the change of the leading ideology of film production and the increasingly obvious trend of world film commercialization, the quality of Venice Film Festival declined and was surpassed by the commercialized Cannes Film Festival.
What makes China tourists feel cordial is the Venice Film Festival, where China films win many awards in August and September every year. As the first international film festival in the world, the highest award of Venice Film Festival is the St. Kyle Golden Lion Award. The origin of the Golden Lion Award is because the symbol of Saint Kyle and Saint Kyle is a winged lion, which is the patron saint of Venice. However, the stone lions in Venice could not stop the city from falling. Venice, which is famous for its trapped water, is currently immersed in water for 200 days every year, while in the early17th century, this figure was only 7 days. Every June 1 1 to February of the following year, the continuous rainfall makes the seawater of Venice lagoon flow backwards at high tide, and tourists can only walk on tiptoe in the famous St. Kyle Square. The underground infrastructure of many ancient buildings was corroded and became unstable, which led to the sinking of a large number of ancient buildings. In 200 1 year, scientists found that Venice sank 67 cm in the 275 years since 1727. Causes of subsidence: In addition to the influence of sea level rise, there are also human reasons, that is, over-exploitation of groundwater in the process of modern industrialization leads to the collapse of underground rock strata, and the whole water city is sinking into the water bit by bit. Some people even predict that Venice will become a water city in 80 years. Venice is also known as Venice Water City. It's very comfortable to sit in the boathouse and enjoy the beautiful scenery outside. Other world-famous water cities include Lagos, new york, Suzhou, St. Petersburg, Amsterdam, Venezia-Venice, a city in the northeast of Italy and an important port on the northwest coast of Venice Bay in the Adriatic Sea. The population is 343,000. It is mainly built on a shallow beach 4 kilometers offshore, with an average water depth of 1.5 meters. There are railways and road bridges connected with the land. A bridge consisting of 1 18 small islands, 180 waterways and 378 boats is called "Water City". It was built in 452 AD. In the eighth century, it was the trade center of the Adriatic Sea. /kloc-The city was founded in the 0/0 century. In the Middle Ages, it was one of the most prosperous trade centers in the Mediterranean. After the opening of the new air route, the European commercial center gradually shifted to the Atlantic coast and declined. 1866 merged into the kingdom of Italy. Industry and commerce are developed, including aluminum smelting, chemistry, coking, chemical fertilizer, oil refining, steel and other industries. It is famous for producing jewelry and jade crafts, lace and embroidery. Marghella Port on land is an important oil port and passenger port. A famous tourist center with 3 million tourists every year. The ancient St. Kyle Square is the activity center of the city, surrounded by Byzantine and Renaissance buildings such as cathedral and bell tower. Lido is a linear sandbar 2 kilometers offshore and the most famous bathing beach in Europe. The history of Venice began in 453 AD. At that time, farmers and fishermen in Venice turned to this Adriatic island to avoid the cool nomadic people who loved swords. Venice looks like a dolphin. Its urban area is less than 7.8 square kilometers, but it is composed of 1 18 small islands. When the 177 Canal was as dense as a spider's web, these islands and the canal were connected by about 350 bridges. The whole city is connected with the Italian mainland peninsula only by a long dike. The construction method here is to first lay large wooden stakes on the underwater silt, one by one, which is the foundation. After the stake is firmly nailed, the board is laid and the house is built. All the houses here are built like this. So some people say that there are stones above Venice and forests below. In order to build Venice, all the forests in northern Italy were cut down. Such a house, don't worry about underwater wood rot, will not rot, and will become harder and harder, and will become stronger and stronger for a long time. Archaeologists have excavated Kyle before? In Polo's former residence, the excavated wood is as hard as iron, and only when it comes out of the water will it rot. Fun.
