Postcard #6 : Venice

For the last remembrance of Venice, I bought several postcards there. But, unfortunately - I have sent some of them BEFORE I took their pictures. :(  So, here are the last two postcards from Venice and if you miss my older post about Venice, you could read it here .  The price for each postcard is relatively cheap - around 50 cents until 1 Euro .  The first postcard shows the inside part of St. Marco - and you could only buy it in the souvenir store nearby the entrance of St. Marco.  Inside St. Marco  The second postcard is the grand canal - the most famous view in Venice and a must see!  Apart from these postcards, you could find MOREE postcards with beautiful scenery.  No wonder, as I have said it before - even the most un-touched place in Venice is BEAUTIFUL. :)
