Burano is a beautiful town in the lagoon famous for being colorful. It is said that the tradition of coloring houses with bright colors arises from the need of fishermen to find their home in the fog, after having drunk a few more glasses.

Every house in Burano is a different color. According to legend, the houses were painted in different colors so that the (drunk) fishermen could recognize their house earlier in the fog on their way home.
