A distinctive view of Venice, Italy, with weathered historic buildings facing directly onto a canal. The structures feature traditional Venetian architecture with terracotta roofs, faded brick and stucco facades in muted tones of pink, peach, and white, and typical arched windows. An artistic graffiti can be seen on one of the walls near the water level. To the right, a small bridge crosses the greenish waters of the canal. The buildings show signs of aging and exposure to the water, a common feature in Venice due to its unique location. The roofs are adorned with various antennas and chimneys, and many buildings have balconies or terraces. The sky above is partly cloudy with hints of blue peeking through.

Banksy chose one of our houses in Venice for his masterpiece

During the days of the Venice Biennale opening, Bansky realized a wall spray stencil - right in the heart of the days of pre-opening of the largest exhibition in the world. Banksy is an English artist and writer, considered one of the greatest exponents of street art, whose real identity is still unknown. His works are often satirical and concern topics such as politics, culture and ethics.

Caldè, the Portofino of Lake Maggiore

Splendid village on the Lombard shore of Lake Verbano. The lakeside, the fortress, the piazzetta. Here is what there is to see in and around

Panoramic view of a stunning Sicilian bay with crystal-clear turquoise waters. A small rocky islet rises at the center of the bay, surrounded by moored boats. The coastline is characterized by steep rocky cliffs covered in Mediterranean vegetation. In the background, the sea stretches to the horizon in deep blue hues. The white and gray pebble beach lies at the foot of the rocks, creating a striking natural contrast.

Mare di Taormina

The sea of Taormina has a unique charm, thanks to the diversity of its coastal landscape, which alternates between beaches, bays, and cliffs along one of the most beautiful stretches of the Ionian Sea.

San Gregorio, Capo d'Orlando to love

San Gregorio, in Capo d’Orlando, is one of the most beautiful fishing villages in the province, gaining fame for inspiring Gino Paoli’s iconic song Sapore di sale. Like him, many artists of the time chose Capo d’Orlando as their summer retreat, making it a key destination of the so-called dolce vita.
