A quite morning on a canal in Dorsoduro finds walkers strolling along the fondamenta (canal walkway). The fondamenta serve as foundations for the ancient buildings of Venice.

  7. It seems to me that Dorsoduro is less visited by the tourists who come to Venice. It is a pity because it has a special air, a wonderful light at the sunset and nice buildings. I remember when I was there, a huge cruise ship was entering the port and the people stayed there, waving:)
