I'm Italian and I live relatively close to Venice, but I never had the chance to visit it until last year.

It's just crazy. I was left astonished by its beauty. It's a place you have to see at least once in your life.

(Recommendation for those who want to visit it: renting a hotel in the city is crazy expensive. What I did, was rent a place in a camping site on the other side of the river, and then take the ferry to go in and out of the city. It's still very expensive, but you'll save some money this way)
