Lord Byron called Venice (Venezia) "a fairy city of the heart." La Serenissima‚ "The Most Serene‚" is an improbable cityscape of stone palaces that seem to float on water‚ a place where cats nap on Oriental marble windowsills set in colorful plaster walls. Candy-striped pylons stand sentry outside the tiny stone docks of palazzi whose front steps descend into the gently lapping waters of the canals that lace the city. In Venice‚ cars are banned -- every form of transportation floats‚ from water
