Venice, city of canals and sinking buildings but a museum also- the whole town! In the Middle Ages, Venice grew in wealth and trading power reaping from their location between Asia and Europe. By stealing the bones of St. Mark, the city-state became a religious center also. Venice partied in the 17th and 18th centuries with wealth accumulated earlier.
