On the canals of Venice, there is a very special bridge. On the white stone bridge, long galleries are built on both sides. There are thirteen arches on these galleries, the largest arch in the middle is open and airy, the other arches are sealed with black wooden boards. This seemingly ordinary stone bridge is a popular tourist attraction in Venice. Why do tourists like to come and see a bare stone bridge? What's so interesting about this bridge? Let's go find out.
The one behind me, is the oldest bridge in Venice, called Rialto. It looks like a regular bridge, but inside, it's a marketplace. Let's go take a look.
There are many tourists on the bridge, although the bridge is wide, but the tourists are bustling and continuous, filling the entire bridge. The arches on both sides are filled with shops, one next to the other, each shop has a sunshade in front, well thought out, to provide shade and shelter from the rain for customers.
Doing business is a tradition for the people of Venice, it seems like everyone is good at it. The merchants here mainly sell Venetian specialties, there are Gondola models, various Venetian masks, and exquisite decorations. These wine glasses and glass tableware are made very delicately, many souvenirs are not expensive but crafted beautifully.
Look at these various cat figures, and the blue glass cats, elegant and translucent, so adorable, you'll definitely want to buy them all.
Even if you didn't plan to buy anything, when you come here, you won't be able to resist. Wow! So beautiful! I'm going shopping!
Venice is most famous for its exquisite glass, the colors of Venetian glass are rich and vibrant, especially Murano glass jewelry, it's a customer favorite. The designs of this store are particularly elegant, with soft color combinations, and the designs of this store, are bright and vivid in color. The bracelets from this store, are exquisite and lively, there are also many styles of glass earrings, even if it's the same design, there are different color choices. What to do? You might as well buy one of each!
The color combinations of these necklaces are like oil paintings, colorful and exceptionally shiny. This is the most stylish Murano glass in Venice, its secret lies in a thin layer of metal foil between two layers of glass, vibrant colors, metallic reflections, plus the refraction of glass, wearing it is particularly eye-catching. In short, everything is beautiful, irresistible!
Venetians are proud of this, so there is a Murano mark on the back of the necklace. Many tourists bought a lot of souvenirs, walked for too long, and ended up simply sitting on the stone steps to rest.
The history of Rialto Bridge can be traced back to the 13th century, at that time, it was the only bridge on the Grand Canal. Rialto Bridge used to be a foldable wooden bridge, when a large sailboat came, it could be opened in the middle to let the boat pass through. After more than three hundred years of use, the wooden bridge was worn out, later, it was rebuilt with marble into the stone bridge we see today.
Rialto Bridge is crowded with tourists every day, very lively. Passing through the crowded crowd, walking down Rialto Bridge, there are many restaurants on the shore, colorful tablecloths on the tables, decorated with flowers, full of romantic atmosphere. We tried a unique Venetian pizza, the sauce and ingredients on top are very fresh, the pizza crust is super thick, but when you take a bite, it's particularly soft, very chewy and delicious! We also happened to discover Venetians selling pasta on the streets, just like how Hong Kong people sell fish balls, it's really interesting!
