One of the best things about souvenirs is that they preserve wonderful memories of a place. I have lots of souvenirs that I’ve purchased such as postcards and Murano glass jewelry. But these photographs from Venice are both from famous landmarks and places that will always remind me of a moment in time.

This may not be a famous place but I can recognize it as being from Venice.
