Kotetsu's one word

The crowds of St. Mark's Square were overwhelming. The view of the cityscape from the bell tower was a condensed Venice. Each of the small Islands had its own characteristics, but especially the racing Island of Burano attracted us.

Venice is a picture no matter where you walk. Tourists are rushing in today when a new day begins. It leaves like a low tide with the setting sun. On the Rialto Bridge is a mountain of bell-shaped people. The gondola earns until late at night. View the canal from the room. A hotel with the best location.

Be sure to check out the paintings and architecture of the Doge's Palace once in a lifetime. I had the Last Supper with my guide, Yayoi Taguchi. Swiss hotel restaurant, the "cotelette" like the ears of a statue is the size I have never seen. The hotel restaurant doesn't suit me in jeans. I prefer the friendly "Barcaro". The river flows like weaving between alleys. A gondola slips under the bridge.

The fun of walking through a maze of Venetian towns without a map. It is said that there was a time when countless pigeons flew around St. Mark's Square and built Italian power and wealth in the history of hundreds of years. St. Mark's Square in winter has been submerged in the last 100 years. I was surprised to hear that the table on which I was sitting was for the sidewalk. A puddle informs you that the time has come for flooding.

A week's tour of Venetian Islands and barcaros. Colorful houses on Burano Island. Sant'Erasmo Island's quiet and laid-back life, A full course of Island restaurants. A blissful time to soak in the wine of Brunello (confectionery) Vino Santo and eat. A three-star restaurant that is fully booked on Sundays.

It is said that there will be more people in the season, but it will not be possible to move any more. That charm is hidden in this Venice. I left the hotel in the dark and walked on St. Mark's Square. Preparation for a morning different from noon begins with cleaning the open space. The rising sun rises above the Grand Canal and the water surface shines brilliantly. A Venetian town that entertained every day. A barcaro found in the back of a maze-like alley. A glass of wine brought by us. Everything is, Venetian.Chao.
