Nestled in the Venetian Lagoon, just a short boat ride from Venice, lie two of Italy’s most enchanting islands: Murano and Burano. While Venice draws millions with its grand canals and romantic gondola rides, those who venture a little farther are rewarded with vibrant colors, centuries-old craftsmanship, and a more relaxed pace of life. Whether you're planning a day trip or an extended stay in northern Italy, Murano and Burano Islands are must-see destinations that offer a unique look at Venetian culture and artistry.
