Dream Holiday

I have never really thought much about holidays, but when i was tasked with this, i started wondering where i would like to go. I have always wanted to go to a place in Europe, as it seemed to be a place with a nice atmosphere about it. Paris, London and Rome were some of the more familiar places i know. However, i didn't have the feel for them, and that was when Venice occurred to me through my friend. Venice, the city of water, its quite a unique place in that sense. It has had some interesting history too, which i know some parts of, thanks to Social Studies in Secondary 4. I would say the scenery is great too, from my indirect experiences of it, like in movies(The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen), it would definitely be a great place for photos. Being rich in history and culture, there are also many museums and buildings of interest where i can spend my time, since i'm not a big fan of shopping. The carnivals there also intrigue me, as they have been made out to be really interesting. I would surely hope to attend one. No plans yet though.):

The web site evaluated is http://www.turismovenezia.it.

The most important criteria is coverage, as i need to get the information necessary for me to make my plans. The website has good coverage as it includes current events in Venice, places of interest, information on accommodation, pictures, and other assorted information. The various links it provides are also useful, such as one to a map and another for weather.

Currency is also a factor to consider as one would want to have the latest updated information about air tickets and accommodations.

It is also easily accessible as no logging in is required and users have free access to all information. It also has an english version of the site, making it easy for foreigners.
