The canals and the city are a wonder. It goes beyond adjectives such as romantic. Here, we are talking an experience that draws upon the water, medieval history, and your inner self, not just a pretty waterway. Know that Venice Italy is such a wonder that they draw over 6 million tourists per year, all without the benefit of California weather. I am sure that the Venice CA canals are a sight but I doubt that most of the folks who have been to the canals in Venice CA and Venice IT would tell you that the CA canals were better.
