Belluno
Belluno is a larger ski town, overlooking several

edifices to rival the palaces along the corsos of Genoa. Despite its
historical importance as a Venetian center, Belluno is still a great
place to take a breathtaking ride to the nearest mountain peak at any
time of year.

Venice Italy:
For centuries this town interconnected by its series of
canals and small bridges was also the most important and opulent of the
many warring Italian republics. As a crossroads for international trade
and boundary adjustments of reigning empires,
Venice reflects the influence of many and the dominion of none. Home
to both Marco Polo and Byzantine churches (such as St. Mark's Basilica),
Venice has the most perfectly balanced , indescribably exquisite public
square and setting, and that in a country which has essentially
perfected the transformation of public life into art.

Originally a short-story by Nobel Prize winning German
author Thomas Mann. A jaded and solitary visit to the beaches of Venice
-- beaches which are truly beautiful and serene in their own right but
minor stars in a city of firmaments -- by a dissipated and probably
dog-bitten foreign artist who tries to renew his youth with a distant
obsession for a boy at the beach. Filmed in the same Venice hotel as
scenes from The English Patient -- the Hotel Des Bains
The final film of the Indiana Jones trilogy focuses on
the archaeologist's search for the Holy Grail and his father who went

of Indy's apartment were filmed in the Danieli Hotel near Venice.

Set in several medieval buildings and churches

to live. The ministrations of a selfless nurse steadily reveal the true
nature of his many injuries.

A psychopath with few actual talents arrives in Italy
