All visitors of Burano remain intrigued by the many colours and the colorful houses that are reflected into the green waters of channels, by the leaning bell tower, by the tranquility and the calmness with which the elderly ladies embroider original Burano lace by their tombolo (or lace pillow), while they are laughing and chatting in squares among them. It seems to be in paradise. Children who dart freely with their bicycles, balconies with multicolored flowers, fishermen who put up fresh fish from their traditional boats.
Just gone ashore from actv ferry (purchasing Burano\'s water bus tickets), you will be in a green lawn where a Remigio Barbaro\'s solemn sculpture is placed.
Pursuing the shores you will arrive to center of the Island: Galuppi Square; here neighbourly ladies invite the most curious visitors to come into their shops to admire the lace working.
Although in lacemaking in Burano is the main craftsmanship attraction, enchanting is also the \"lume glass working\": a technique born in the nearby island of Murano, but also widespread in the other islands of the Venetian Lagoon. Burano is not an exception to this and it is quite easy to come across some little shops where you can admire this type of Murano glass processing. Real glass factories in miniature, such as the shop located in Fondamenta Giudecca 132, inside a typical and small green house.
If you search for a place to eat like a local, Burano is very famous for its fish dishes, the most famous of which is the \"risotto de gò\": the broth in which the rice is cooked and creamed is extracted from the \"gò\" a fish typical of the Venice lagoon, known in English under the name of \"goby\". The dishes of the Burano\'s cuisine are served in restaurants, who despite being known from the point of view of the quality of the service, in the kitchen maintain the genuineness of a typical old \"trattoria buranella\" (a Burano\'s tavern) and where you can still eat delicious fresh fish.
If your time is short, there are anyway several pizzerias or you can opt for a delicious icecream in a bar or a typical Burano\'s cookie (the most famous are the \"Bussolà\" and the \"Esse\") in a pastry store, enjoying it until the end of Piazza Galuppi where San Martino Bishop\'s Church is located: inside, in addition to a lot of important works, there is a famous opera of Gian Battista Tiepolo. Sideways is located the Santa Barbara\'s Chapel.
Always in the same square there is the \"Museo del Merletto\" (Lace Museum), the Town Hall, a well made of Istria\'s stone and the Baldassare Galuppi\'s sculpture made by Remigio Barbaro, the well-known sculptor from Burano.
