With all the canals of confusion, this town is made for walking. The jig-saw puzzle layout of this town is more of a challenge of logic than physicality. The city lies down the planks for people to use when it floods, so bring your boots during the rainy seasons in fall and spring. As one can imagine, this city is quite an obstacle course for the disabled. Call Informa Handicap at (39 041) 534 17 00 for more information.
The Vaporetti, public ferries, run up and down the Grand Canal flowing through the center of town.
