You can check the original Wikivoyage article Here

    The Metropolitan City of Venice (Città Metropolitana di Venezia) is an administrative entity in the Veneto region of Italy, with around 850,000 citizens.

    The Venetian Lagoon is a bay of the Adriatic Sea with several islands. While Venice is by far the most populated and visited, many of them are nearly as spectacular, and might be more genuine.
