XVY is a code associated with Venezia Mestre, the main railway station of Mestre, the mainland part of the city of Venice in northeastern Italy. Although styled as an airport code, it refers to this busy rail hub rather than an airport. Mestre is the modern, mainland district of Venice, separated from the famous island city by the lagoon and linked to it by a causeway. For many visitors it serves as a practical and more affordable base, with hotels, shops and restaurants, from which the historic centre of Venice, with its canals, St Mark's Square and the Rialto, is only a short train or bus ride away across the water. Venezia Mestre is a major stop on Italy's rail network, including high-speed trains from Milan, Florence and Rome. From here, trains run on to Venezia Santa Lucia, the station in the heart of Venice. The climate is temperate, with hot summers and cool, damp winters.
