    Was this video sponsored by Hotel Bauer and others? If so it would be nice to see it written somewhere.
    As Venetian I appreciated how you mentioned that we are becoming Disneyland. It should be enphasized more that we loose 1000 inhabitants per year and we will be a completely fake city very soon. This because of interests of companies and people from outside come before the citizens which have no right and representation to defend their right to live in their home city, we need a municipality only for the city in order to preserve it. But they don't allow us to vote and achive this condition.

      That is actually very sad to hear. I am glad that they have at least now prohibited cruise ship from entering the proximity of Venice, so that the buildings and the lagoon are more protected. I have always been fascinated by Venice and Venetian history. I also wanted to visit the city, but I actually haven't done so yet and I would probably feel like an annoyance to the locals. Regards from Germany.

    Burano houses are not painted in vivid colors to make drunken fishermen capable to find again their homes, but it was due the fog that in winter stands for entire weeks near the ground in banks of dozens meters height. In recent times global warmth reduced presence of fog in whole northern Italy to only a dozens days sparse during the entire year lenght.

    I had no idea that Venice had a prison. I’d definitely do time there-didn’t look that bad at all. I bet the food is really good as well.
    I’ve been lucky enough to visit Venice for 2 weeks in the late 90s. It was a magical experience. The entire city is locked in time. The only modern motor sounds you hear are the motor boats on the outskirts of the city. Everything is made of Marble. Just breathtakingly beautiful. It’s now in danger of sinking into the ocean for forever. I hope they can save Venice. There’s just no other place on earth like it.

    It is a shame about the music chosen. So many programmes are musically illiterate. At La Scala the first operatic notes were of a Spanish dance from a French opera. Venice thankfully avoided the cliché of Vivaldi’s Quattro Stagione but instead we got a blast of Russian ballet. Sullivan’s Merchant of Venice music would at least have been nearer the mark.

    I don’t understand why Venice government allows cruise liners to enter Venice. They could come in with small boats and a certain controlled number at time. Not that the cruise liners are the main tourist problem but one problem at the time.

    Hmmm, cruise ship (possibly Rhapsody) does not carry 5,000 people, and tbh for the most part they do not visit Venice with a packed lunch - doggy bag style.
    On the other hand many day trippers do, and don't quote me 9n this, but I think the number of day trippers is much higher than those of cruise passengers.
    On averege how much income per person does a cruise passenger bring into the city compared to a day tripper?
    As for an alternative, safer means of bringing these rather large ships into the serene city, we all agree.

      Cruises are bad for Venice, especially with that “let’s see saint mark square from the canal” tour, accidents happened where a cruise hit Venice with no control over it whatsoever, fortunately not a lot of people got injured, but it’s just the beginning

      Thousands of battelli chugging up and down the grand canal, and others.
      Many cruise passengers stay in hotels in Venice PRE-CRUISE and or post-cruise.
