A short hop by boat from Venice, Murano is more than an important place for glass making: a 12th century Byzantine church, quiet canals and corners, and - if you're lucky - the yearly regatta.
Walking on the Fondamenta Nuove, you can already see Murano lying across the water; a 10 minute boat ride will take you to the first stop on the island. It is recommendable, though, to continue until the boat actually enters the Canal Grande of Murano. If you arrive early enough, you will not meet many people while exploring this group of islands. Enter the living quarters behind the Canal Grande and you will only hear your own footsteps echoing on the walls around you. Gardens, a sportsfield, a green cemetery, new apartment blocks in Venetian style, and treelined lanes are all defining the quiet character of this part of Murano.
