Venice is known as 'Queen of the Adriatic', 'City of Water', 'The City of Masks', 'City of Bridges', and 'City of love'. The word Venice is also known as Venetia meaning uncertain. Venice is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region. The place was discovered long back in 421 AD by the Celtic people who used to live along the coast. The city is overwhelmed with the architectural mojo and the subtle art of the places. The city is built on water and to date, there are 1000 years old piles of wood balancing the weight of the buildings. That’s what makes Venice a place to live for, thrive for, remember for and be uncertain from time to time. Jay Kantawala Founder, WIYO Travel lists five intriguing places to visit in the city.
