The Veneto is often defined as a polycentric region. Its provincial capitals, historic cities and hubs of industry distribute political, cultural and economic benefits equably and productively across the region. These considerations, however, are of little interest to the armies of tourists visiting Venice every year - at times straining her capacity to accommodate them. They take apartments overlooking the canals, dream of romantic gondola rides and frolic and laugh in St. Mark’s Square wearing Harlequin masks. The whole world knows that Venice is a capital of art, history, refinement, and pleasure. A magical twosome: Venice, one of the world’s most beautiful cities and the Veneto, a region whose great variety of landscapes and natural treasures include the Dolomites, the beaches of the Adriatic Sea, the rolling hills of the Center-North, and the splendid waterscapes of Lake Garda Lake, the Polesine area, the Po Delta and the Lagoon. This splendid Italian region is well portrayed in our itinerary and, thanks to the great merits of aerial photography, we have captured views of the Veneto in its entirety while clearly portraying individual features of the greatest interest. After flying high above the Serenissima and the Lagoon - the unique environment from which it arose to become a waterborne jewel - we continue our exploration of the Veneto by portraying its incredibly varied natural environment by going on to fly over the Veneto’s lesser-known areas to discover cities and towns, castles and abbeys, and picturesque villages, showing us that the so-called ‘lesser’ Veneto isn’t really ‘lesser’ at all!
