The Grand Canal (Italian : Canal Grande, Venetian : Canalasso/Canalazzo) curves along the very heart of Venice. It is indeed the geographical as well as the symbolic center of the city, and to everyone being along its banks it gives the sensation of being in a unique landscape.

love the symmetry and repeat patterns...those italians are so talented
I have not seen every part of the world, but I believe Venice's Grand Canal is indeed a unique landscape, not just the sensation of one.
Is there another city where canals are the streets?
It is uniquely beautiful—thanks, Pierre!
Love the black and white!
I am such a fan of b&w and this one is beautiful.
