Mestre ((:ˈmɛstre)) is the center and the most populated urban area of the ''mainland of Venice'', part of the territory of the Metropolitan City of Venice, in Veneto, northern Italy. Administratively speaking, Mestre forms (together with the nearby urban area of Carpenedo) the ''Municipalità di Mestre-Carpenedo'', one of the six boroughs of the commune (Comune) of Venice. Sometimes considered as ''frazione'', it is the most populated one of Italy, counting 89,373 inhabitants. ==Overview== The mainland of Venice is the territory of the city based on normal land (instead of natural or artificial islands like the most well-known parts of Venice) connected to the historical center by a long rail and road bridge over the Venetian lagoon, called ''Ponte della Libertà'' (Freedom Bridge). Since the end of World War II, Mestre had a quick and disordered urban growth, after which Mestre constitutes a vast human settlement together with the other urban centers of the Venetian mainland (Carpenedo, Marghera, Favaro Veneto, Chirignago, Zelarino, Tessera). Being Mestre the center and the most populated area of the mainland, very often in common language the toponym Mestre is used, incorrectly, to define the whole Venetian mainland. Mestre received the title of city in 1923 and maintained it briefly till 1926, when was annexed to the commune of Venice. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mestre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
