Every year during the spring and summer season (around March to October), the city of Venice in Italy is crowded, crowded by tourists from everywhere and from yachts crossing the ocean.
Nooks and crannies, squares and bridges have no place to squeeze. Taxis, Vaporetto public boats and Gondola boats go up and down the main canal to serve tourists.
But this year, due to the Covid-19 translation from mid-February, Venice became unusually empty, something I had never thought of. Days of blockade, crowded scenes of Venice, bon chen were replaced by tranquil, peaceful scenes due to the absence of public transportation, no tourists and no services. .
For the first time, after nearly 3 months of restricted travel, on June 3, everyone was free to move around the city, between cities and between regions of Italy. Italy has reopened its borders to several EU countries such as France, Sweden, Serbia, Albania and Croatia.
Everything seems to be starting to come back to life, reaching out to the early summer sun, all activities are returning to normal: Buses have started to become crowded, more people use but the distance is still guaranteed. to prevent the spread of viruses again. Tourists have also started to look to Venice as an ideal place to have memorable moments in the city of love.

Walking around Venice, water buses or boats (gondola) have welcomed their first passengers after a long vacation.
Public transport is back in service
Strolling along the streets of the bars, people are sitting talking in boats or bars along the canal and enjoying the typical pieces of cicchetti and spitz glass of this area. People meet, talk and have fun together after a long time apart. And most people still ensure that they are safe to wear a mask when going out to minimize the spread.

Bars and coffee shops have opened and welcome guests as they used to. The familiar guests beside the Italian coffee, everyone met happily, chatting like close acquaintances long apart ...
The restaurant has reopened
It is true that the city was more crowded because everyone was free to move, but it was only in cafes, bars or fast food bars ... where the people here often meet.
However, in a different corner of Venice, the place where people often congratulate passersby is now extraordinarily deserted: Rialto Bridge or San Marco Square. Still quiet and quiet by the canals crossing, still standing but why is lacking something, perhaps the bustling atmosphere of the tourists.
The usual places where tourists line up to record beautiful moments when in Venice are now empty, even I stood there for 10-15 minutes and not many people passed by.

That's it, the Venetian days after the blockade has gradually revived, gradually become more cheerful and full of life. But it is originally a tourist city, so it still reminds people of the bustling atmosphere, as crowded as it used to be. Let's wait until 1.7, when European countries plan to reopen so that the city of "love" can welcome international visitors again.
