The Lagoon & the Islands
Other cities have suburban sprawl and malls; Venice has a teal-blue la-
goon dotted with photogenic islands and rare wildlife. Outlying islands
range from celebrated glass centres and former Byzantine capitols to
beach resorts and arty isles, sometimes divided only by a narrow channel.
