La Serenissima

DANIELE MARZEDDU

Exploring Venice and its lagoon is liberating and leaves one speechless . The island of Sant’erasmo is the largest one in the Venetian lagoon, second in size after Venice, considered the historic “vegetable garden of Serenissima”. Riding a bicycle following its small perimetral trails is a proper romantic experience. The island itself is solitary and almost abandoned by humans and one is able to sense the feeling of La Serenissima (the most serene).

On the Southern lagoon lies Pellestrina a thin stretch of land that divides two bodies of water. Cycling along this thin strip gives one the sense of floating between and sky.
