Combine shopping with culture! Murano is a visit-worthy island in and of itself, with lovely vis- tas at every turn. Do note that one does not go to Murano for a deal, like visiting an outlet, but rather to see artisans at work. Ars Cenedese (
www.arscenedese.com) has been producing Murano glass
since 1946, and they will welcome you to their stunning showroom and tell you about the products they proudly produce. An excel- lent place to learn more about the history of glassmaking is at the Museo del Vetro (Glass Museum,
www.museovetro.visitmuve.it) located on Murano and recently
refurbished in early 2015. While on Murano, try to get a table for lunch at Osteria La Perla ai Bisa- tei (Campo San Bernardo, 1; Tel: 39-041-739-528) and enjoy a true workman’s café, where many of the glass blowers on Murano go for lunch. Te secret is out, so go early before a line forms. You’ll
