People also call it the “Floating City” and the “City of Water” because the whole city is on the water—there are over 117 small islands and over 400 bridges in this city. One of the best ways to see the city is on a gondola—a traditional boat. Venice 3More readingGondola---- the best way to see the city
Taking a gondola ride through the canals of Venice can be very romantic, but it can also be costly.
Gondola fares
A standard gondola ride is 40 minutes. If you negotiate for a lower fare, you’ll end up with a shorter ride. Gondola fares are higher at night. A gondola holds six people and can be shared without affecting the fee. Therefore, you can save money by sharing it with several people. If you book a gondola ride through a hotel or agency, there’s likely to be an additional fee.
What should you expect from your gondolier?
Gondoliers must be officially licensed.
Gondoliers must wear black pants, a striped shirt and closed dark shoes. They usually have a special hat but don't always wear it.
Singing is not a requirement for a gondolier. Although some may sing, it's best not to expect it. Some may also give information during the ride.
Gondoliers stand up to row and use only one oar as this is the best way to row through the narrow canals of Venice. If you want to go to a particular place, be sure to discuss it with the gondolier before the ride. Most gondoliers speak some English. It is extremely rare for a woman to become a gondolier.Where to go on a gondola ride?
Most people recommend taking a gondola ride on the quiet canals rather than on the crowded Grand Canal. If you want to ride on the Grand Canal, a waterbus, or a vaporetto(水上巴士) is much less costly. Riding on canals in areas with fewer tourists will give you a different view of Venice.4Self-assessmentHHomework上网查询威尼斯的介绍,进一步了解这座城市,并准备进行2分钟的口头介绍。
