The Architecture of Burano, Italy

ADS1
Burano is an island in the Venetian lagoon. In contrast to the opulence of Venice, Burano was a community where many fishermen lived. Its buildings are much more simple in design, although nevertheless quite charming.
Burano is known for its very colorful houses. One explanation is that the fishermen would paint their houses the same color as their wooden fishing boats. The photos also show that they hang a curtain in the doorway to provide some privacy, but to allow a cooling breeze through the house.
Burano is also known for lace. Apparently the women of the island became quite skillful at lace making while their husbands were out fishing. Lace is still sold today, although the handmade lace is challenged by the competition from imports from the Far East.
We never tire of walking the "streets" of Venice. I have been there 3 times and my husband has visited 5 times. We even took a group of 16 family and friends to Venice on our last trip there.
The architectural details of Burano and charming, even though they are plain in comparison to the ornate characteristics of the palazzos and grand buildings of the main part of Venice.
