picture of a canal

city hall and opera in the same building - the tour guide said it was called the Shopera

famous bride that was built over a canal - story behind the bridge is that 2 wealthy sisters lived on either side of the canal but were too lazy to walk down the side of the canal to cross the bridge that was near their houses so they had the bridge built so they could meet each day.
