Description
Venice is a fantastic city, full of history and culture, and it completely overflows with atmosphere and festivities during the carnival. Venice Carnival is especially famous for its ornate masks. Masks are a part of Venetian history, dating back to the 1300s. For centuries, Venice had one of the most rigid and elaborate sets of social classes, and masks were a way of hiding one’s identity and class. Carnival masks are given elaborate decorations and details, with no two masks looking quite the same! In our time the carnival is celebrated for its own sake and most revelers probably have no idea how it began. It is simply an excuse to have a lot of fun! The masks that adorn faces are featured in every shop window. They are on sale for tourists year-round, but during the Carnivale season, there are more masks than canals. Regardless of which mask you choose, you will have a souvenir of Venice.
