WHERE AM I?

Venice, Italy

Venice was founded in 422 by Roman refugees fleeing from the Goths. However, no historical records exist about the origins of Venice. And the city's 70,000 inhabitants do much more than meditate upon the glories of Venice's past - you'll no doubt see them sitting beside you at the Cafe Florian, on San Marco Square, or selling leather goods, hand blown, Murano glass and Armani ties at the city's many fashionable boutiques.
