When we walked out of the Compass Room and across the Bridge of Sighs, we could see the charming canal that flows under the bridge, leading to the prison.
우리가 Compass Room을 걸어 나와 감옥으로 향하는 ‘탄식의 다리’를 가로지를 때, 우리는 다리 아래도 흐르는 매혹적인 운하를 볼 수 있었다.
On our way back to the bed-and-breakfast, our tour guide told us, “Venice was built on wet and muddy land by people who were trying to escape from armies from the north and east.”
숙소로 돌아오는 길에 우리의 여행 가이드는 우리에게 “베니스는 북쪽과 동쪽으로부터 적들을 피해 탈출한 사람들이 습한 진흙땅에 세운 것입니다.”라고 말했다.
When I heard that, I was quite surprised.
나는 그 말을 들었을 때, 상당히 놀랐다.
Who would have thought that this city, born from tears and suffering, would turn into a place of such great beauty?
