Boat Trip to the Industrial Port of Venice, MOSE System, Pellestrina, and Torcello
The Meeting Point is at San Basilio Boat Stop at 9.00 am
The boat trip includes visits to the Industrial Port, MOSE system and two islands of the lagoon: Pellestrina and Torcello.
This activity is compulsory for the courses: “History of Venice” (Prof. Pes), “Preservation of World Heritage Sites” (Prof. Gianighian) and “From Venice to Seoul” (Prof. Zanalda).
Students from other courses will pay €5, to be collected directly on the boat.
