The 1893 Chicago World’s Fair was perhaps the most impressive exposition in history, more than filling the shoes of the 1889 Paris Expo that had introduced the Eiffel Tower. The fairgrounds were drained to form canals in which gondolas, operated by native Venetians, provided a most unique mode of transport.
