    Venice Canal – Los Angeles

    By Miguel K | Los Angeles | 0 comment | 24 January, 2018 | 0

    If you visit Los Angeles, then you definitely want to check out the Venice Canal. What makes it stand out is the fact that it’s created from man-made canals and not natural ones. But even so, it was designed with the idea of bringing in the style of Venice from Italy to Los Angeles. The greatest thing about it is that it does stand out of the crowd with the great build, and you will be quite impressed with the unique appeal offered by the canals.

    They are bounded by the Eastern Court, Court A, Strongs Drive and Court E. you will find 6 canals in total. The lit canals tend to have arched bridges and you can even find gondoliers in there too. That’s one of the things that actually helped the region evolve and grow. It’s a really special thing to have, and one that does pay off quite a bit because of that reason.

    The issue was that as soon as cars started to become more and more relevant, the Venice Canal started to be obsolete. In fact, a lot of people consider the Venice Canal to be a bit outdated. The majority of the canals had to be filled in 1929 because they wanted to create roads in that region. An understandable approach, because you do want to be all about business in this type of situation.

    That being said, during the 40s the canal started to fall in disrepair. The issues continued here to the point where most of the canals had to be repaired quickly and in an efficient way. But that wasn’t really the case at first, which is why the canals didn’t end up being renovated up until 1992. It was a huge problem for the majority of people because the Venice Canal became a strength of character for the region, so having them removed was an issue. And yes, not handling the Venice Canal correctly did end up bringing in environmental concerns as well as health issues for the neighborhood.

    But now all of that is done. The Venice Canal can be used without a problem, it’s cleaned up very often and the entire experience offered here is a beautiful, interesting one. There are lots of smaller bridges here too, which do end up showing the beauty of the canal. But yes, they can also be used for moving around from one place to another.

    And maybe the best part is that you can find lots of ducks and animals nearby too. But the coolest thing is definitely the architectural variety found near the Venice Canal. It just stands out from the crowd and it’s bound to impress you a lot with its pristine visuals and unique attention to detail.

    If you want to visit the Venice Canal, that would definitely help you see the area in a different way. The Venice Canal is a gem for the entire region, and in many ways, it does bring in Italy’s beauty and uniqueness to the US!
