Venice, Italy: The Doge's Palace Syed: Venice, is nice but very inconvenient place in my opinion. We are here right now we see lots of people lost, even Google is not accurately assisting. The times have changed the city better make fast decisions to accommodate people with disabilities and are using wheelchairs. Better put ramps on the bridges it is possible. It will help senior citizens and people who have health issues.
The city is generating tons of revenue so why invest, will earn more money anyway.
Also put sings to direct tourist, the
information booth must be open late hours.

Venice's main claim to fame was its innovative banking sector. Doges were elected by the aristocrats in the city much like they were in Florence and other Italian cities - to make the city and its residents richer.

Venice, of the 180, 000 residents, at least 1, 000 were fabulously wealthy. Seems like the idea of 1% holding all the wealth is not a recent phenomenon. Funny how we think things are different in today's world.

I learned a lot but the music is totally wrong, these are french dances performed in a pastoral style, nothing whatsoever to do with Venice please edit in some relevant music! Thanks

such dynasties never died out they simply built bigger castles all over the world, they are the true power brokers of this world and will stop at nothing to hold on to it

Reading Roger Crowley, this video puts color to his wonderful books about Venice and trading. Thanks. Rob (like #400. A nice video.

Of course the comments would be full of the Doge meme. :D
