Venice, the city suspended between water and sky
Venice is not a city like any other. One does not walk on streets, but on ancient stones worn away by time; one does not cross avenues, but silent canals, mirrors of water in which the sky merges with the earth. Here, everything seems to float: buildings stand on invisible foundations, millions of poles within the sand, boats glide lightly, the wind carries with it the scent of the sea and the sound of waves caressing the shores.
It is a city of light and reflections, of shadows stretching in narrow alleys, of bridges uniting past and present. Venice is history carved in the marble of its churches and in the faded facades of its palaces, where every crack tells a story, every window hides a secret.
Here, time follows a different rhythm. It is measured in the slow rocking of the gondolas, in the tolling of the bells of St. Mark's, in the silent comings and goings of the shadows along the calli. Venice is a labyrinth of wonder, where getting lost is the only way to find yourself.
But Venice is also fragile. It is beauty and melancholy, it is splendor and decadence. Its foundations sink into water and history, suspended between past glory and future uncertainty. Yet, despite everything, it endures. For Venice is not just a city: it is a dream, an illusion of stone and water that continues to enchant anyone who touches it.
Staying in Venice is a privilege. It means waking up enveloped in the silence of the water, experiencing the city before the day fills it with voices, strolling through deserted calli when the sun sets and the street lamps light up like stars reflected in the canals. Those who have the privilege of stopping here know that Venice is not visited, it is lived. And in that living one discovers its most authentic heart, the one that eludes hurried tourists and reveals itself only to those who devote the time it deserves.
