Isola di Torcello og kirken Santa Fosca
Torcello is a sparsely populated island at the northern end of the Venetian Lagoon, in north-eastern Italy. It was first settled
in the year 452 and has been referred to as the parent island
from which Venice was populated. It was a town with a
cathedral and bishops before St Mark's Basilica was built.

of Ravenna, located on the island of Torcello, in the Venice Lagoon,

Saint Fusca of Ravenna was a child martyr killed along with her
nurse, Maura, around 250 AD, in Ravenna, under the persecutions
of the Roman Emperor Decius.
SHORT HISTORY
It seems that a church dedicated to Santa Fosca existed on this
place since the first half of the 9th century.

tok en utflukt til Postojna-grotta i Slovenia. (i 1987 Jugoslavia) A fantastic web of tunnels, passages, galleries and halls, the astonishing diversity of Karst features as well as easy access are certainly the main reasons for such popularity of the cave and a large number of visitors, which has already reached 37 million in 200 years. https://www.postojnska-jama.eu/en/ come-and-visit-us/postojna-cave/ |

Øy i Venezias lagune
Burano
All visitors of Burano remain intrigued by the many colours
and the colorful houses that are reflected into the green
waters of channels, by the leaning bell tower, by the
tranquility and the calmness with which the elderly ladies embroider original Burano lace by their tombolo
(or lace pillow), while they are laughing and chatting in
squares among them.
It seems to be in paradise. Children who dart freely with
their bicycles, balconies with multicolored flowers,
fishermen who put up fresh fish from
their traditional boats.

The Burano's Leaning Bell Tower
The best location to admire the Burano's leaning bell tower
is the Terranova's marble bridge or the Giudecca's street
(the one in Burano and not the one in Venice).

 Murano glass |
when the Venetian Republic, fearing fire and the destruction
of the city’s mostly wooden buildings, ordered glassmakers
to move their foundries to Murano in 1291. Murano glass is
still associated with Venetian glass.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murano
Built in the seventeenth century, the leaning tower has
a square shape and Renaissance and neoclassical
architectural features.
He has undergone several restorations over the centuries,
especially in the upper part of the belfry.
Among these maintenance works teh most note is the one
carried out by the Tirali, which occurred between
1703 and 1714.
The height of the Burano's tower is 53 meters and it stands
on a base with a side of 6.20 meters.
Because of land subsidence it is inclined of 1.83 meters
respect to its axis.

I Venezias lagune ble båten vår angrepet av pirater. Helddigvis viste det seg de at de så farligere ut enn de var. Barneklubben på Lido di Jesolo hadde kledd seg ut og fulgt etter oss i egen båt. |
Utflukt til Venezia
This sanctuary on a lagoon is virtually the same as it was six
hundred years ago, which adds to the fascinating character. V
enice has decayed since its heyday and is heavily touristed
(there are 56000 residents and 20 million tourists per year),
but the romantic charm remains.

The gondola
is a traditional, flat-bottomed Venetian rowing boat, well suited to the conditions of the Venetian lagoon. It is similar to a canoe, except it is narrower. It is propelled by a gondolier, who uses a rowing oar, which is not fastened to the hull, in a sculling manner and acts as the rudder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Gondola |
| Piazza San Marco By Durant Imboden In New York, every tourist has to visit Times Square. In London, Trafalgar Square and Piccadilly Circus vie for the visitor's attention. In Paris, the vacationer is expected to give at least a passing glance to the Place de la Concorde. The equivalent tourist magnet in Venice is the Piazza San Marco, better known to Anglophones as St. Mark's Square. It differs from its foreign counterparts in two major respects:

St. Mark's Basilica
The mightiest of Venetian monuments, the one that really
shows the greatness of Venice is undoubtedly the Basilica
of San Marco.
It was built over several centuries, frequently transformed
and enriched with precious treasures, often from the Far East.
Its architecture, a mixture of Byzantine, Roman and Venetian,
is the work of artists and craftsmen coming from all over.
It can be considered a real laboratory, a living organism,
developing and transforming over the centuries.
