City walks Venice

The Venetian Lagoon stretches from the River Sile in the north to the Brenta in the south, with a surface area of around 550 square kilometers. It is around 8% land, including Venice itself and many smaller islands. About 11% is permanently covered by open water, or canal, as the network of dredged channels are called, while around 80% consists of mud flats, tidal shallows and salt marshes. The photos are from 2011 and 2012. In July 2012 we spent 5 days on the Lido and we visited Murano, Burano and explored Venice.
