Murano and St. Mark's Cathedral

The second day we went to explore an island named Murano that is known globally for its glass. Every piece of glass was amazing and so carefully done. Almost everybody bought something from there because the glass was so unbelievably gorgeous that everybody felt the need to possess at least one piece. Glass was not the only thing that we saw on Murano, we also so a church that was so silent on the inside that you felt that you could hear the church inhale the salty air. After our visit to Murano we went to St. Mark’s cathedral, it was beautiful and there was a lot to explore inside. We loved the sculptures and the architecture inside of St. Mark’s. The mosaics were especially stirring and the paintings on the dome were unforgettable.
