After the stakes are firmly laid, the boards are laid, and then the houses are 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 rotten, it won't rot, and it will become harder and harder, and it will grow stronger for a long time.

The special scenery of the streets and alleys of Venice Watertown. Some waterways are narrower than the hutongs in Beijing, so two boats can't sail at the same time, so they can only go one way. 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 interfere with sailing at all. Bridges and water streets in Venice criss-cross and run through on all sides. People use boats instead of cars and bridges instead of roads. The land and water are crowded with tourists, and pigeons fly with seagulls, forming a unique life interest of this world-famous water city. Among many bridges in Venice, Rialto Bridge, which leads to the city center with the railway station, is the most famous, 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. The two ends of the bridge are supported by 12, wooden stakes inserted into the water. There is a pavilion in the middle of the bridge, which spans the Grand Canal.

The unique Venetian boat has a unique name-"GONDOLA" (Italian "Gondola", also translated as "gondola" or "Gondola"). This light, slender and unique boat has always been a tool for Venetians living in lagoons to walk instead of walking. According to literature records in 194, its name came from the first governor in the 7th century. Gondolas have a very long history. The 11th century was the most popular period of Gondolas. At that time, the number of Gondolas exceeded 1,, but today there are only a few hundred Gondolas left in Venice. Although the number is only one twentieth of that in the 18th century, it is gratifying that small shipyards like San Trowaso are still making and repairing such boats, which makes this ancient Venetian tradition spread. Gondola's appearance design was originally varied. In the 16th century, Gondola's appearance was extremely gorgeous, and nobles often showed off their wealth by riding a beautifully carved Gondola decorated with satin and silk. In order to curb this extravagant atmosphere, the Venetian Senate issued a ban: it is not allowed to put any decoration to show off the family status on the pointed boat, and the installed ones must be removed, and all gondolas are painted black. The only thing left for decoration is the bow panel. This tradition has been maintained, and now Gondola is also a uniform black, which will only be decorated as a flower boat on special occasions. This boat has two parts that can reflect the imagination of craftsmen. One is the natural and unrestrained bow, which is very similar to the six-toothed halberd used in the 15th and 16th centuries. (Each tooth represents a district of Venice), and the other is an Ionian stern. By the 18th century, the shape and size of this Venetian pointed boat will gradually be fixed to what we are today. Today, this boat is generally 1.75 meters long and 1.75 meters wide. The flat bottom of the boat is asymmetrical, which can keep the balance of the boat rowing only by one side. In the former gondola, there was also a movable canopy in the middle cabin, which was used to shelter passengers from the sun and rain. Some canopies had small windows and sliding doors on them. Later, this kind of awning also disappeared. Gondola boatmen are now wearing only a tight knit top with stripes and a straw hat. In the past, the uniforms of boatmen were very strange and elegant. When rowing, the boatman stood on the stern, with a long single paddle resting on a curved paddle rack. On weekdays, Gondola is mainly used as a tourist boat, and the cost of taking Gondola is relatively expensive, with an average of about 7~12 euros every 4 minutes. On the first Sunday afternoon in September every year, a traditional Gondola boat race with a long history, namely Regata Storica, will be held on the Grand Canal in Venice. Venice regatta originated in 1315 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 17 meters long from east to west, 8 meters wide in the east and 55 meters wide in the west, with a total area of about 1, square meters. Their beautiful and harmonious shapes and vivid and lifelike 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 vivid and lifelike. In the east stands the 98.6-meter-high Bell Tower of St. Kyle and the Church of St. Kyle, which integrates eastern and western architectural arts. To the west are the Governor's Palace and the St. Kyle Library. The neat and gorgeous Governor's Palace connects the Governor's Mansion and the nearby dungeon with a pink and Wei Sigh Bridge
. There is a very famous Sigh Bridge, which is one of the must-visit attractions in Venice. The bridge of sighs belongs to the early baroque style. The bridge is house-shaped, covered by a dome, and tightly closed, except for two small windows on the canal side. Sigh Bridge is an arcade bridge, which is built on the river between the Governor's Palace and the prison and enjoys a high reputation. It was built in 16 (another information: 163). It is named after the death row inmates pass by here when they are taken to the execution ground. When the prisoners are tried in the Governor's Office, the felons are taken to the dungeon and may die forever. In the past, the death row inmates had to cross this airtight bridge when they walked to the execution ground. They could only look at the blue sky through the small window, think of their families waiting for farewell on the boat under the bridge, and they felt mixed feelings and could not help but sigh-they would say goodbye to everything in the world if they walked forward. 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, let the man stop at the window. The window lattice is exquisitely carved and is composed of many eight-petal chrysanthemums. Looking down on 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. The blood didn't drip off the bridge, and the roar didn't come out. Even if it came out, the woman who kissed could not hear it. The blood has been washed away, and the tragic story has been forgotten by most people. Just say that this is the "Bridge of Sighs", the last glimpse of prisoners. Let's turn that tragedy into a comedy and say it's a myth. The movie "Love Will Set the Sun on 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 the court to escort death row prisoners to the prison in ancient times.
