The most famous shopping area in
Venice is the Mercerie, a set of narrow streets that links
St. Mark's Square and the Rialto. You can purchase here anything
from designed clothing, glass products, handbags, or books.
For the greatest selection of traditional glass pieces and
lace, you can go to the islands of Murano and Burano.
Venice is famous for local crafts produced here for centuries:
the Murano glass, the lace from Burano, and the cartapesta
(papier-mâché) Carnevale masks you'll find in
endless botteghe, where you can watch artisans paint.
