Photo postcard from Venice which illustrates one of the symbols of the city of the Doges: the gondola.
You can choose to only see from Venice what there is in the tourist guides but what I have preferred during this weekend was to lose myself in the alleys in order to soak up the atmosphere of another Venice, the one forgotten by the floods of tourists. Of course I took advantage of the tourist Venice, it was a shame to miss the Doge's Palace, the gondola ride or the Campanile. But I'm happy to have been able to isolate myself in lesser known corners of Venice in order to see another side of the lakeside city.
