Canals
Layout of Venice
On the surface, it looks simple enough; a few big islands wrapped around the sweeping backward-S curve of the breathtaking, palace-lined Canale Grande (Grand Canal). There are lots of smaller canals - nearly 180 of them - worming their way through those islands across a tangle of alleys.

Canals in Venice
A quiet canal off of the main canal. Canals are everywhere in Venice, and other than the alleyways, provide the only way to get around.

This canal is some distance away from the main canal and would only see local trafc such as people going to and from home.

More crowded canals in Venice just before dusk. This is the equivalent of a residential neighborhood, with people's "vehicles" parked at the "curb".
