Jun 13, 2012 — Anyone looking for a free-spirited social scene will find it in the open squares and plazas of Venice, where people gather to drink en masse, engage in invigorating dialogue, and occasionally break out some music.
A good variety of neighborhood bars and pubs are scattered around town, all of which offer excellent food and wine accompanied by the hum of conversation or upbeat music.
While there is a sophisticated side to the city, the pace of life is very mellow – in fact, the way that Venice is built right on the water seems to elicit a ubiquitous calm that naturally sends out good vibes and creates an overall laid-back atmosphere.
