Murano

Murano is famous for its glassmaking industry.
It is a really pleasant town that looks like a small village compare to Venice and is less crowded. We went on a Sunday so, unfortunately, we didn't see the craftsmen working.

There are loads of glass work on display in the streets.


As I told you previously, GruikGruik went shopping in Venice/Murano/Burano:

The bigger piggy comes from Florence. It is a ceramic one made by the Italian artist Riccardo Biavati.
More tomorrow....
