Murano is an island located in the Venetian Lagoon, approximately 1.5 km north of Venice, Italy. It measures about 1.5 km across and has a population of just over 5,000. The island is particularly well known for its glassmaking industry, which dates back to 1291 when Venice required all glassmakers to move there in order to protect the city from the risk of fire. Through centuries of craftsmanship, Murano's artisans have perfected the techniques of producing a variety of optically clear, enamelled, and multicoloured artisan glass pieces such as jewelry, chandeliers, and imitation gemstones. Even today, visitors flock to Murano to see these glass-making processes live in action and attend the Murano Glass Museum in the Palazzo Giustinian to learn more about the island's vibrant history.

and make sure to keep your eyes peeled: you will see some workshops demonstrating glass working. Admiring the skill with which the craftsmen work this material at very high temperatures is something not to be missed in Murano! Before embarking again towards Burano, be sure to stroll through the shops selling beautiful objects in colorful glass for a nice souvenir to take home.
