The first Venetians interacted with the land around them and built a city upon the marshy islets of the Lagoon of Venice.
The Venetians use the surrounding Adriatic Sea to their advantage by utilizing the salt water to make sea salt. Sea salt has been an essential commodity for Venice throughout its culmination.
A quintessential Venetian tradition is the gondola. This narrow flat-bottomed boat with a high prow and stern is commonly associated with Venice. Venetians interact with their environment, the waterways, by riding in the gondolas.
