Venice Classical Music Thrills This November ? Cheap Hotels In Venice Available By HotelTravelExpress On That Occasion

Perth, Western Australia (PRWEB) October 21, 2011

The Italian city of Venice known in Italian as Venezia is a truly magical city. The city is a seaport in the Veneto Region of northeastern Italy. This spectacle of a city is situated on more than 100 islands formed by about 150 canals. Venice has a history of being a naval power and a commercial center. Enchanting Venice, which is fondly referred to as the ?Queen of the Adriatic.? was home to some of the world?s most powerful merchants in the Middle Ages. For several centuries, it has captured the imagination of travelers and great writers including William Shakespeare who wrote the Merchant of Venice. Since the fall of the Venetian republic in 1797, the city has become an inspiration of nostalgia and it has held an unrivaled place in Western imagination. Since that time, writers have continued to describe Venice in prose and in poetry and they have put pen to paper about all that they fancy in Venice, making the city even more alluring to tourists from all over the globe. HotelTravelExpress, a key player in the tourist economy of the world, is also present in the city to give tourists the needed direction to cheap hotels in Venice.

Throughout the month of November, Venice, which has a reputation as a home to classical music, shall be holding its annual national piano music competition, the Premio Venezia, in which new talents and stars are born in the full glare of the international audience. The event will be held at 7.00 p.m. daily at the Teatro la Fenice which is the organizer.

The luminous spectacle of Venice palaces, ageless architectural masterpieces bell towers and ornate marbled domes which reflect in the sparkling waters of the Venetian lagoon under blue Adriatic sky has continued to arrest the fancy of artists who have painted, photographed, and filmed the vista of pleasant sights over and over again. In 1987, the enchanting city of Venice and its lagoon were designated as UNESCO World Heritage Site and even more tourists are attracted to this city, which is one of the oldest tourist sites, and cultural centers in the world, to be transported into a world whose atmosphere and beauty is unrivaled.

One major distinction of this city is that being a city on islands, the network of lagoons shut out the intrusion of automobiles in the romantic city and preserves its pristine nature while HotelTravelExpress comes in to link guests with the cheap hotels in Venice.

Just Released Today, The Gratitude Book Project?: Celebrating 365 Days of Gratitude is Available on Amazon and is the Perfect New Year's Gift for 2012

Milwaukee, WI (PRWEB) December 14, 2011

Brenda Schubach Kiehnau, Executive Director, I am a Force4Good, is a co-author in The Gratitude Book Project: Celebrating 365 Days of Gratitude, a collaborative book sold on Amazon.com featuring over 300 authors answering the question ?What are you grateful for?? in 200 words or less.

The book shares compelling stories of appreciation and evidence that harnessing the power of gratitude can be a life-changing force. The difference between saying thank you?good manners?and living in gratitude?great life skill?are illustrated in moving pieces.

There?s a mom who thinks of irritations as blessings and another who gives thanks for Muscular Dystrophy. There are narratives about how wrinkles, not fitting in and suffering came to be embraced. There?s even gratitude for ex-husbands and ?ugly gifts.?

The Gratitude Book Project: Celebrating 365 Days of Gratitude is not only full of thanks but is also brimming over with testimonials to the people, things, events, and circumstances we so often take for granted.

Kiehnau?s contribution to the book centers around the past 10 years since 9/11 and what has come from that day of sorrow. She has been faced with challenge but, blessed by the many who are part of her life.

"The project was a perfect way to share with all those who are in my life how truly thankful I am for them. Being part of this book is a celebration of those who silently cheer me on and never ask for recognition. It was important for me to say thank you in a special way," shared Kiehnau.

In keeping with the spirit of the project, net proceeds from national book sales will be split among three charitable organizations: Feeding America, Women for Women International and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ACPCA).

For more information about The Gratitude Book Project? the co-author Brenda Schubach Kiehnau can be reached with the contact information above or email Media(at)TheGratitudeBookProject(dot)com or call 619-923-3082.
