A trip to Venice. Burano and Murano Islands

When you get tired of the hustle and bustle of people in Venice, I suggest you visit the islands of Burano and Murano


  When you get tired of the hustle and bustle of people in Venice, I suggest visit Buran and Murano Islands. Let's start with Murano Island. Just a 20-minute drive to the gondola or those seeking public transport to reach the water Murano Island, also known as the Glass House. Murano is famous for its glass products in the world. Pirmieji amatininkai persikėlė čia iš osmanų užimto Konstantinopolio. Pradžioje stiklapūčiai persikėlė į pačią Veneciją, bet del dažnai sukeliamų gaisrų jie buvo „Ištremti” į Murano salą. Kadangi ten gyveno visa stiklapūčių bendruomenė jie tarpusavyje dalindavosi savo patirtimi ir išgavo būdą kaip iš paprasto stiklo išgauti krištolo skaidrumą ir įvairias ryškias spalvas. XVI amžiuje Murano stiklapūčiai išgarsėjo visame pasaulyje. Kadangi stiklapūčiai gyveno saloje, Venecijos valdžia jiems uždraudė išvykti iš salos, kad stiklapūčių paslaptys nepasklistu po pasaulį ir Venecija taip galėtu išlaikyti monopolį. Bandantiems pabėgti iš Murano salos buvo įvykdomos mirties bausmės.

  If you come to Murano Island with a group or take a boat trip to Murano Island in Venice, Murano's Glass Blowers will hold the entire show. How to make a vase or glass horse in minutes. You will then be offered a visit to a glassware and souvenir shop nearby.

While still on the boat you will notice the sloping tower of the bell tower of Buran Island. Buran's bell tower is tilted by 1.8 meters. The architect, who designed the bell tower, did not calculate that the land on the island is very swampy and the groundwater is very sacrificed. So hurry up to visit Buran Island before the bell tower is over.

There are not many tourists here so locals and merchants are not tired of tourists and will greet you with a smile everywhere. And the prices here are much lower compared to Venice. Located in the Gulf of Venice Buran Island famous for its brightly colored fishermen's cottages.

The unofficial version is to make it easier for fishermen to come back from the bar to find their home and not get lost in the neighborhood. What version to believe, choose yourself, I believe in the unofficial version.

  Buran Island is still famous for its lace, which can be bought in small shops. There is also a lace museum on the island.

  What to visit on Buran Island. Because the island is very small, I recommend simply strolling down the narrow streets and admiring the magnificent colorful huts. Then sit down at one of the canal or bay cafes and enjoy your holiday with Burano branded coffee.
