When winter arrives in Venice, the city becomes even prettier, with an uninterrupted angle to photograph around every corner.
It may not be to everyone's liking but the misty fog that clings onto Venice in winter makes for a dramatic sight.
Winter in Venice also has its bright and sunny, yet bitterly cold days. As long as you're dressed right, it's a great time to visit the island city.
Fewer crowds, shorter lines for attractions and more room to roam around are just several of the benefits of visiting Venice in January.
Whereas summer in Venice is busy, noisy and uncomfortably hot, winter is calmer, colder yes, but altogether more welcoming.
When you visit Venice in winter, it can sometimes feel like the city is just for you. Explore every narrow street and take as many uninterrupted photos as you want.
