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

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...
