Yes, in Venice they named their theatre La Fenice, the Phoenix.
It's world famous (and rightly so).
The Venetians had to rebuild the theatre three times - IMHO that happens when you name your theatre after a bird that regularly goes up into flames to be reborn again.
Well, the theatre was thrice reborn. We all hope the 1996 destruction was the last in it's history. Because the theatre, as it is now, is a stunning beauty. Can't say other than that.
See for yourselves...
(ps -we were not allowed to take pictures inside the Theatre. I'm just saying)
