Murano - an island of glass





An island , Murano can be reached by waterbuses from Venice . Get off at the last stop and you can reach the glass museum and the church of St Mary and Donatus . Initially while we were searching for our home stay, we crossed several bridges , until we came to the last stop. Besides the museum, we stopped by at the factory and here are some of the pictures on how glass is moulded in Murano . You can do a lot of shopping here ; each shop window looks extremely colourful with glass figurines and hand painted masks hanging around ..
