Venice is made up of 118 islands

The northeastern Italian city of Venice serves as the region of Veneto's administrative center. In reality, the city of Venice is made up of several distinct islands, each with its personalities and landmarks. These islands, tucked in a serene coastal lagoon collection of 118 little islands that are connected by 400 bridges and 170 canals, are what give Venice its distinct appeal. Between the Po and Piave River mouths, along the shores of the marshy Venetian Lagoon, are where they are situated. They seem like one city's land mass as you move about, making it simple to forget that they are distinct islands.

These structures that were built here are quite amazing. If you don't take a bird's-eye view of Venice, you might never discover this fact. Who would have guessed that a city that was once a marshy lagoon would eventually resemble a fish made of islands? Views from above will see the city submerged in its aquatic environment. The city and its islands are one of the most visited places in Europe today and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
