Description
Two gondolas on the Lagoon in Abbot Kinney's Venice of America. The Race Thru the Clouds roller coaster is in the background. Kinney built Venice of America in 1905 to replicated the feeling of Venice, Italy in Southern California. Complete with Venetian style buildings and gondolas (as seen here), Kinney's Venice of America opened on July 4, 1905.
