My uncle took us to the famous city Venice one day to experience the unique city.  Venice is unlike any city because instead of cars being a dominant form of transportation, gondolas and boats are used.  The city is isolated by the sea but that just adds to the city's charm.  While we were in Venice, we saw many churches and walked through St. Mark's Square where there a ton of people selling trinkets and what not.  My family and I took a relaxing gondola ride and even rode in a water taxi in order to get to the Glass Factory.  The factory was really cool because they showed how they handblow glass.  It was a really cool place and definitely one of my favorites in this iconic city.
