Well, if you WILL build a city on top of several sinking islands….poor Venice. I hate to think of all the damage the flood waters are doing to this beautiful city. But they seem to be handling it as best they can.
I wonder about the danger, though. It would be too easy for someone to not see the dividing line and accidentally step off a walking area and into a canal — or do they have these areas marked off for safety? Guess they do.
