Murano is famous for its glass-ware. It was beautifully quiet and almost tourist free when we visited - a lovely place to meander and discover hidden treasures.
Burano is famed more for its lace-making and brightly coloured housing. Allegedly to make them more visible to the fishing boats, apparently the colour of your house is quite strictly controlled by the local government! They did look beautiful in the winter sun - our only day without fog in Venice:
Some houses were even bright pink:
