Once a recognized
Mediterranean power, in the 18th century the ancient Republic
of Venice was withdrawing into itself.
In this age
of political and economic decline, not the same could be argued
about its citizens’ social life... this was the golden age
of libertine writers, scandalous ladies and lascivious
Carnivals.
But Venice
was also a romantic place for hidden relationships, a time for
lovers and courtesans, and the time of Casanova.
In this walk
back in time through the centuries, you will enjoy a collection
of spicy stories narrated while walking in the Rialto area of
the city, filled with places with long stories and rich histories
behind, tales told often in murmurs...
