Description

Quartiere Venezia (Venice Quarter) is a unique, 17th-century neighborhood located in the historic center of the city. It's also referred to as Venezia Nuova (New Venice), for obvious reasons. The system of canals, common in Italy during the Middle Ages, ?was used to move products between merchants' homes and warehouses, and even today many residents still keep boats moored outside their houses. The Effetto Venezia (Venice Effect) festival celebrates this water-bound district.
