After leaving Murano, all sad and droopy, I headed to Burano, another island situated towards the north of the Venetian lagoon. You know how visuals can make you instantly happy? That's what Burano does for you! The island can literally make you joyful in an instant! Here's why. Every house on the island is painted in the brightest shade of every colour under the sun! There is really nothing other than this colourful atmosphere to experience on the island but I would say it's is a must see. Burano's houses belong mostly to fishermen who would paint the houses in bright hues in order to spot them while fishing from the lagoon. The island was made famous mainly by their wives would make lace and that tradition has continued even today. The traditional methods of making Burano lace are painstakingly long and hence the products are very expensive. The weather was not really the best in the month of April, it rained a lot and it was all cloudy and windy but regardless, the ambience of Burano remains bright and cheerful!
