Geography and Significance

Murano is made up of seven small islands connected by bridges, arranged around a network of canals that mirrors central Venice's own layout on a smaller scale. The Canale Grande di Murano, its widest waterway, runs through the center of the island and is lined with the glassblowing workshops the island is known for.
