… walk from St. Mark's Square. Venice is situated on the shores of the Adriatic Sea in northern Italy. The capital of the region Veneto has been known as "Serenissima" or the "Queen of the Adriatic" is located in a saltwater lagoon stretching along the shorelines between the mouths of the River Po in the south and the River Piave in the north. Venice is built on 118 islands, formed by the world-famous canals and connected by over 400 bridges. The buildings of the city are constructed on wood piles. Since 1987 Venice and the lagoon are listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. The canals of the city have the function of roads and every form of transport is on water or on foot. The classical Venetian boat is the gondola but most Venetians travel by the motorised waterbuses (Vaporetti), which drive on regular routes along the main canaly and between the islands of the city. The historical centre of Venice is divided into six districts (sestriero): San Marco, Cannaregio, Castello, Dorsoduro with the islands of Giudecca and San Giorgio Maggiore, Santa Croce and San Polo. Venice is considered to be on of the most beautiful cities in the world and the city is one of the most popular destinations in Europe. Venice is world-famous for the unique location in the lagoon, the history and the buildings, palaces, museums and churches as well as the carnival. San Marco is one of the six districts (sestieri) of Venice and is considered to be the urban heart and the political and cultural centre of the city. This area is densely built and it was the location of the government of the Republic of Venice. Now San Marco is an important touristic area with many hotels, exclusive shops and Banks and this small district includes most of the world famous attractions of Venice, such as St. Mark's Square with the St. Mark's Basilica, the Doge's Palace, the La Fenice Theatre, Palazzo Dandolo as well as many important churches and museums. The luxurious five star Hotel Bauer and "Il Palazzo at the Bauer" are the only grand hotel in Venice since 1880, known as "Grand Hotel d'Italie Bauer Gruenwald", outcome of a happy marriage between Mr. Julius Gruenwald and Mr. Bauer's daughter.
