Carnival in Venice - February

 

More like a marvellous movie set than a real city, romatic Venice is known for its canals, gondolas and art treasures. Founded in the 5th century spread over 188 small islands, having 150 canals and 409 bridges, the whole city is an extraordinary archictural masterpiece.

The Carnival of Venice, celebrated every year, is famed and has gained popularity for its originality. The city, the only one of its type in the world, becomes animated by masks of every kind and costumes of the epoch. People come from the world over to attend private abd publick masked balls and masked revelers of all ages invade the small squares and the narrow streets, where music and dancing continue nearly day and night. With a mask as a prop, one can lose themself completely and experience the freedom that wearing a mask allows. Dressing up in elaborate costumes has always been the point of Carnival. Theatrical performances and an array of ancient games are organized for the amusement of Venetians and visitors alike.
