Burano
Description
The lace-making centre of Venice, and home to one of the largest communities off of the main islands. In keeping with tradition all the houses on the island are painted in bright colours making the area appear very pretty. The spire of the church dominates the island, if only for it's slightly less than upright angle (it looks as though it leans even more than Pisa's famous tower!)

Getting There
From San Marco catch boat LN direct to Burano. The journey takes about 75 minutes. Alternatively you can walk across Venice to Fondamente Nova and pick up the LN to Burano there, but this still takes about an hour.
