Nightlife Tour in Burano
Burano transforms after dark. Neighborhoods around Fondamenta streets and Lace Museum take on new energy, new sounds, and new possibilities — and the best way to discover it is on foot, moving between venues the way locals do. Track down Mazzorbo for the kind of night that only locals know about.
Burano's houses are painted in vivid primary colors — a tradition said to help fishermen find their homes in the fog. The island has been a center of lace-making since the 16th century, when Burano punto in aria lace was prized across Europe. Today the island is a photographer's paradise, with every canal and alleyway a composition of color.
