A Bit of History 
The city of Venice is remarkable by Italian as well as international merits. It’s hard to believe the epic floating city we love today was once nothing more than a marshy lagoon scarcely inhabited by fishermen. In fact, it’s existence was largely uneventful until the 5th century AD.
The islands, separated from the mainland by a flat stretch of sea, gained popularity during Attila’s violent barbaric invasions. The lagoon became a safe haven for people running from the barbaric raids and soon grew into a lively settlement. The name, Venice, is based on the name of the runaway Veneti people living in the present-day Veneto region.
The rest of the story is pretty clear… Thanks to its exceptionally great strategic position on the sea, Venice became heaving commercial hub. The import of exotic species and silk from the far Orient was Venetian specialty. The city’s luck and trading importance declined after the naval discoveries of the Americas which took the sea trade in the opposite direction.
You can learn this and much, much more when you take the private walking tour of Venice with us!
