The gondola attraction inside The Venetian resort has closed temporarily for routine maintenance. The outdoor gondolas won’t be affected by the closure, however.<\/p>\n

The indoor canals will reopen on Oct. 2, 2013, and the hotel’s singing gondoliers will resume belting out songs in a variety of languages, including the international language of tipping.<\/p>\n

Gondola rides at The Venetian began when the hotel opened on May 3, 1999, the year Prince wrote a song about partying like.<\/p>\n

The hotel’s first gondola was christened by The Venetian’s head honcho, Sheldon Adelson, and none other than actress Sophia Loren. Interesting fact: Sophia Loren even came with her own floatation devices.<\/p>\n

Gondolas have a fascinating history. Their use dates back to 1094. A couple of random gondola facts to eat up more of your valuable time: All gondolas are black. This was the result of a 16th century decree intended to keep nobles from trying to show each other up with garish ornamentation.<\/p>\n

If you look closely at a gondola, you’ll notice the prow (the part up front) has six “teeth.” It’s believed these notches represent Venice’s six districts.<\/p>\n
