The Hidden Gems of Venice: Murano, Burano, and Torcello
Explore Venice’s three magical islands of glass, lace, and history
Just a short boat ride from Venice, the islands of Murano, Burano, and Torcello offer a unique escape.
Murano is world-famous for its exquisite glass-blowing tradition, where you can watch artisans create delicate masterpieces.
Burano, on the other hand, dazzles with its colorful houses and intricate lacemaking, a craft that has been perfected over centuries.
Finally, Torcello, the least visited, is steeped in history, with ancient churches like the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, dating back to 639 AD.
These islands provide a beautiful contrast to the bustling city of Venice and are perfect for a day of exploration. ✨
