Torcello
The island of Torcello is in the Venetian lagoon and reached by ferry from Venice. The Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, located on the island has a wonderful programme on Byzantine mosaics. I visited Torcello on a freezing December day in 2006. I don't think I have ever experienced such a cold day, but the mosaics were worth the chill!
