RULES OF CONDUCT IN VENICE
Venice is a fragile town.
The always growing number of people who walk in its calli (roads), has made necessary the creation of a guideline to be followed and ease the visit of the town maintaining the respect toward the town itself and its citizens.
The County of Venice has therefore issued the Guide of the tourist, to make the tourist, that hardly knows Venice, sensitive to Venice needs.
Trash
Any abandoned trash pollutes. Please throw small trash in the nearest bin and most of all limit the quantity of trash avoiding the purchase of disposable material.
