Murano

posted by mbastion on 30 November 2010 at 12:03

Murano is a small island in the Venice lagoon. It measures about 1 square mile and is famous for its glass wares which have been produced here since the 13th century. Seeing a demonstration of glass blowing is really fascinating and its strange that such an industrial process produces such delicate wares.

a number of tour companies operate boat trips to Murano from central Venice

Burano

posted by pring on 30 November 2010 at 11:52

Burano is about 8km outside of Venice but feels like it's a world away. It's famous for making some of the best lace in Europe and Lace making and fishing are still pretty much the sole industries on the island. It's also famous for it's brightly coloured houses. Each house is painted in a different lurid shade. A wonderful place to spend a few hours.
