Coronavirus effect: have you ever seen Venice like that? 

Venice on vacation. So beautiful and peaceful! Stay safe venetians!

Keep those boarders closed for a long time heal your city and your people. Let the people of Venice enjoy their city before it floods with tourists

Earth is taking a break from us. Stand strong Italy, we love you!

This is the city I love the most. So wonderful to see her without mass tourism and large ships. The canals are blue for once. God bless you all.

Remarkable. Venice is the most beautiful place on earth. May you live a long and beautiful life Venetian!

I love Venice. Was there last September. There’s something peaceful about watching this video.

On one hand, this is really sad, but as a photographer and videographer, this is like a dream.

THIS Is the way we would all love to have experienced this world treasure. Not so long ago Venice struggled with the horrific floods ,now THIS. She IS a survivor so with God's help may SHE rise once again. Have seen her twice , each time during the fall when it was less crowded about 35 years apart and yes the water damage and sinking was noticeable. However the garbage floating in the canals had been almost ellimated with no odors. This was a relief, as I had been so worried the pollution of the canals would be worse. VENICE MUST BE PRESERVED AT ANY COST, there are not enough words to express the beauty of this magical city as well Italy as a whole. We in the U.S. hear daily about the horrible COVID 19 effects on hard hit Italy and are praying this will end soon. I fell in LOVE with the Italian people in all areas of Italy, their enthusiasm, hospitable, kind and genuine nature will be remembered always.

My wife and I saw Venice like that back in May of 1979. We arrived at the train station about 4:30. Very little was open and we couldn’t check in to our accommodation so we decided to walk around. Got to st. Marks square and it looked like this. It was glorious. Obviously it didn’t stay that way as the day went on.

In this hard times, the whole planet 🌍 is getting a break 😍

Venice really needed a break. I’m glad the world is healing.

They wanted no more tourists - sometimes dreams comes true ...

venice should really put a quota on tourism, its sad to see one of the most culturally important city in the world being destroyed. Great respect to all venetians who refused to move out from venice because of the chaos it has become.

Praying for Italy.

this breaks my heart! i visited Venezia last year and seeing it like this brings tears to my eyes. Andra tutto bene. forza italia e tutti mondo

Very sad indeed.😞 Who would have thought we would come to this. Beautiful Venice 🌹

Venice has seen so much in its one thousand three hundred years of history.

Venice is resting. Serenissima! Always beautiful!

Venezia fosse sempre così sarebbe BELLISSIMA!!! La poesia della sua Architettura riempie tutti i vuoti lasciati dalle persone.

Just what was needed to help the city recover. No cruise ships bow waves destroying history. No huge congestion and hopefully a slow in deaths.

da veneziano complimenti stupendo il video e la musica grazie

Italia ti amo! 🇮🇹 ❤️

I think the locals would like to see they city this way. Too many tourists have ruined Venice.

now we can see how Beautiful Venice is!

It's like time is in slow motion...a different time and space. I love Venice.

Finally this city gets a moment of silence

Enjoy my dear Venetians, ENJOY. This is what you always wanted: no tourists. I had the opportunity to visit this beautiful city in a supposedly low season and the amount of people gave me anxiety.

Jamás pensé ver Venecia sin gente, esto era al impensable, animo ¡¡Italia!!

How will they all feed their families without an income. We have 2 months booked and paid for April and May. All cancelled. I hope all the merchants can survive till we all get back....we're coming as soon as we can. Bless you all for being there. B&E=BE

Take care everyone and keep safe.....

Sad to see this...good luck God bless you Italy. Love from India.

I saw Italy last year beautiful country, stay strong, and God bless.

Venice, so especially beautiful without homo sapiens virus!

Sì mi ricordo Venezia così, in certe domeniche dei primi anni 80 :-)

"Que c'est triste Venise" - "Com'è triste Venezia" - "How Sad Venice Can Be". 😂 *Andrà Tutto Bene - Everything's Gonna Be OK* 🌈 🌈

Venecia siempre tan bella, solo una pausa. FORZA ITALIA, saludos desde Lima, Perú

Questo video mi ha gelato il sangue eppure ne ho visti parecchi in questo periodo !!! Risaliremo la china mia cara e bella Italia ! Ti amo

Fortza Italia. 🇮🇹🙏💪🙏🇲🇽

Venice is a wonderful place - and these days, without tourists, it shows its pure magic . Sending you my deepest sympathy ....

La citta ha Stato molto maltratta per Mille de persone .C'e tempo di pace per nostra stanca e vecchia belleza

My wife and i are in love with this city! We can’t wait to go back and experience it with our little girl. This place is one of the most magical and romantic places on earth.

Italy...Venice my favorite place in the world...from Miami 😘❤❤

ONE OFF THE MOST BEAUTYFUL PLACES. THE SOUND OF SILENCE.💕🎈

My favorite city it’s unique with its own grandeur would like to visit again!!!

Als ik deze beelden terugkijk na een paar jaar...ik mis de stilte. Het was op een bijzondere manier ook heel speciaal, die rust. En wat is dit nog steeds een prachtige video ❤

Ci manchi moltissimo, Venezia. Sei sempre meravigliosa, ora ancora di più ❤️

I left Venice one week later the coronavirus arrived. I hope I van return to that beautiful city

Perhaps now is a good chance to rescue Venezia from Mass tourism and do things differently in the future?💟 Starting Cleaning all this ugly graffiti everywhere

Hermosa Venecia dios nos proteja, y podamos en alguna otra ocasión disfrutarte nuevamente!!!! Disfruta tu tranquilidad y que pronto salgamos de este horror de "pandemia "

Forza Italia! Salute from Finland !

oh mia bella Venezia,come il mio cuore fa per voi, si prega di prendere tempo per recuperare la vosstra dignita e guarire

Grazie per questi video che mi fanno rivedere per qualche momento la mia amata città, quando andavo a trovare la nonna e giravo adolescente per le calli! Bei tempi adesso sono così lontane vivo dove non mi piace! Grazie!

sicuramente la più bella città del mondo

La città più bella del mondo, ora è ancora più bella! Fermate le barche a motore, andate a piedi rispettate la laguna!

Scientists are getting a perfect opportunity to study the results of reduction of human impact on the environment. They will have new data now. Venice is beautiful. If you set aside the cause of this, I can’t help but notice the peaceful element here.

Happy 1599th bithday, our Lady. Vse najboljše za tvoj 1599. rojstni dan, spoštovana Gospa. Buon 1599 compleanno, la nosta Signora.

Venice is not only a city it is an idea; it is an expression; it is the gentle kiss of a loved one and most of all it is the people of Venice. Know that the darkness of this virus will be conquered and with that spirit of utter optimism and belief in the future, your City of Venice and her people will be stronger. You are not alone and many of us care for each one of you.

Years ago, there was a bomb scare in London and Regent Street was closed. I went right up to the tape that had been strung across the road and, without all the traffic and people, it was a revelation how attractive the street was. You noticed the architecture a lot more. And the same here with Venice. If you live there or can get there right now, it would be fantastic to wander around without the hordes of tourists. Peaceful and pleasant as this video shows!

I AM IN LOVE WITH VENICE AND EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PLACE ITS JUST MY KIND OF PARADISE ON EARTH BUT SHES HAVING A WELL EARNED NAP NOW FROM THE TOURISTS IM SURE ALL THE MAYHEM WILL RETURN ONCE THIS VIRUS IS OVER WITH 🌹🛳🛶⛵🚣‍♀️🚣‍♂️🌞🌞

Ты моя дорогая,далекая,любимая Венеция... ты есть и будешь в моем сердце. Ты-город -мечта,вдохновение.Я мечтаю т тебе. СПАСИБО ЗА ВИДЕО!!❤👍👍👏👏👏🙂

Keep safe Venetian, I know this is not the kind of rest you want for your lovely city but at least, without many tourist and only you walking about and buying your essentials, your place has began healing and breathing easily...God Bless you all

Even the water is drained away

So glad I was able to see this beautiful city last year before this pandemic

Venice, your beauty shines, stay strong, you are a city with heart.

We're planning to be there in early October,while it won't be deserted,I suspect it wont be as crowded as our last visit.

I veneziani si sono impadroniti della loro città...peccato non possano godersela fuori per le calli...

A Venice that is breathing, a Venice that inhale clean and fresh air. 💙

Absolutely beautiful!! But you can never actually be there when it is like this. Ironic!!

Superb place ... missing it ... may god be with Italian people ..

I used to be there twice in 2008 and 2017 it was extremely crowded... but now unbelievable.. quiet clean calm and sadness ...

It’s so peaceful, I like it

So sad - even the pigeon is self isolating !!!

Went there in November during the floods, it was something special and definitely the best trip I've taken. Glad to see she's getting a rest. Forza Italia 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

That one man o in the market trying to sell his fruits and vegetables 😭😭

It’s interesting how so few people yet Venice doesn’t feel lonely nor deserted.

I love Venice. Stay strong Italy!

Venice takes a breather. A few months ago it was awash in tourists. Thousands of them crammed shoulder to shoulder into the Piazza. It's nice to see the city's architectural and urban design features without the monstrous crowds. Soon enough however people will be back, perhaps not in the same numbers. But the city will be back, as it has always.

Same here in Milan last week it was so beautiful to walk around without people.but to be honest I also feel sad.

People walking without masks😡...

Beautiful magnifique

Sparkling water, birds walk freely, blue sky ... let Venice n Venentian having rest.

Somptueux.. Merci 😍

All the best, Italy!

Venesia inolvidable dios les bendiga todo saldra bien saludos de guatemala

The irony is, Venice looks very beautiful without all those tourists. Well, at least for us youtube viewers. But for those who make their living on tourism, it is a whole other story I guess. Hope Venice and Italy recovers, and maybe now it's time to relax and think about the coexistence of tradition and mass tourism( economy) in future. 🇮🇹✌🍀

Looks so peaceful and serene !

Beautiful..I am glad you this on camera..the music

I'm deeply in love with the art and architecture of Venice, so it fills me with wonder to see it freed from throngs of tourists and cruise ships. But I also sorrow for the many Venetians who can't afford to live there anymore.

Thank you for the free trip to Venice ,no passport required !

Μute and deserted the beautiful Venice!!!!!!!! Around the world all the route loke like this!!!!! Hello from new friend here 😊💐

Thanks for this beautiful video.

Peccato che risiedo in Campania e che le recenti ordinanze in tema di COVID 19 emanate dal Presidente della mia regione mi impediscono di venire a Venezia, ma, se fosse possibile venirci adesso, ci verrei subito per scattare delle foto approfittando di questo momento in cui non c'è il solito megaaffollamento di turisti. A me piace fotografare le bellezze monumentali e architettoniche della città lagunare, non il megaaffollamento di turisti che la invadono.

I hope that the Italian government implements some serious changes after lockdown as to how many tourists would be allowed into Venice at any given time! Maybe with some exceptions i.e. Carnevale or Christmas etc. And I pray that all those hideous gigantic cruise ships are not allowed to come that close to Venice ever again. They could throw their anker outside the city and people could come by other means to see the city. It is obvious that Bella Venetia benefits from a bit of a rest. Tourism can be managed in different ways, it wouldn’t have to be always total overload. Let’s see what positive lessons can be learned from this time. I am so glad I had the great pleasure of visiting Venice for a whole week, I arrived 2 days after Carnevale and the city was relatively empty. What a privilege it was to be there to meander through the narrow streets, discover hidden treasures and mingle with the locals respectfully . Thank you for posting this beautiful video 🙏.

it seems sad, but Venice is not define by the tourist, it is wonderful on its own and the people in it as well. They are kind and cheerful. live your beautiful city and take care of it, we will see you soon 🙏🙂

I was actually there a day or 2 before the lockdown on northern Italy and it was amazing, very peaceful.

I Love to travel I was in Venice last year many of my stops in my European vacation. In every city no matter where I am at I visit, it's a must to walk around the city around 1 am or later and go to the places that are normally packed with tourists & have them to myself. It brings me such Joy. To see it during the day so empty it's eerie. Italy & the world I pray for you.

Un lugar muy privilegiado. Dios me De, el honor de estar físicamente. Éxitos desde el corazón de Sud América🇧🇴👩‍💻😍📱

Roba da fantasia! Bellissima cosí

Peaceful

Beautiful tremendous wonderful fantastic incredible amazing. Thousands & thousands & Covfefe Venezia !
