On our first Adriatic cruise, we stayed on the island of Murano at the Locandjo Conterie. This is the former home of a wealthy glassblower, converted into a hotel. Because of the fear of fires, glassblowers were evicted to the island of Murano, who during the time of the Republic of Venice were the only ones in Europe who could make mirrors and grind glasses for glasses. Now it is a mini-Venice with canals, basilicas and campanellas. A special chic is the glass figures scattered throughout the island. Vaporetto on Murano No. 41 and 42, they go quite often, but in the evening you need to be careful, there are time limits. Vaporetto N runs at night to Fondamento station.
