You’re paying for the expirée ce at Cafe Florian. The waiters are in tuxedos. The service is wonderful and the building is beautiful. You’re not rushed. You can sit outside in one of the most beautiful squares in Europe and gaze at the basilica and bell tower and contemplate the history that surrounds you while sipping your tea or coffee.
Glad to know that you don't belong to the 90% category of humanity who can't afford to contemplate life in ghettos like Venice - they are wondering how to squeeze the last penny out of roadside foodstalls and bazaars .

I visited in 2919 and left 24 hours before the flood hit. I asked a tour guide whether people were concerned, living in buildings set on ancient foundations made of mud and logs: she looked at me like I was crazy and said you just don’t use the flooded first floor of your home if you live in Venice. Yeeesh
Ma hai visto tutto il video? Ormai abbiamo il Mose e da quando è in funzione non abbiamo più avuto l'acqua alta. Prima di scrivere va visto tutto il video,a mio modesto parere
@@kapawtaw Just because the buildings have lasted does not mean they cannot benefit from new ideas. Hence the gates. Who cares where the ideas come from.
It's called a museum. The venetian population cannot afford to live there either. They live in the tenement buildings surrounding Venice. Not so sure just how truly helpful tourism is, anywhere. Every nation should be self sufficient and get along, no doubt. The water was sky blue when I was there but I was told I'd be arrested if I dove into any canal and swam. :(
@@jeannedouglas9912The banana you're eating came from thousands of miles away - it's called global trade. Fortunes have been made from time immemorial. No country can afford to be self sufficient.
I find it amusing to suggest the water has risen 2.5 ft when the surrounding marshes much like the ones they built on are not yet covered over by this rising water...The truth is that the weight of the city itself is sinking the buildings into the marsh
The sea-level rise has been modest. Most of the problem is subsidence. Perhaps you didn’t notice the professor in this video explaining this and proposing an engineering solution to the (human-caused) subsidence issue. Unfortunately the sea-level rise we’ve locked in for the coming decades is not so easy to reverse.
Chad , you are 💯 correct I live in South Africa 🇿🇦 and my wife 🇵🇭moved here from Hong Kong We have a 26 age age gap and we both don’t honestly feel or see the Gap Respect , honesty compatibility ,sense of humour and respect and take responsibility for your partner 👥
26yrs?My father has 25yrs gap with his 2nd wife,almost my age......hmmm,definitly too big gap.person in 50s and person in late 70s nothing,nothing can go well. You got yourself a nurce for last days,sucking her life force,terrible. Good luck in that arrangment. Sad to hear you brag about it. All the best.
This was invitable - the original builders assumed thar nature did not matter and built the city on a very important flood plain. They chopped down a forest to put loads of slilts to build the city on and forgot about where the water would go. Now present day people have to bear the cost of maintainance - time to let the whole city go back to the sea. a real pity but nature will have its way
Might help if they outlaw motorized boats . Look at the wake they create. Needs to be gondolas only until they find a better way to protect structures.
Both..people have to stop dropping their waste in the waters sod is sod we have to replenish the earth..climate change is a hoax designed by the devil to produce more nuke and ruin the earth completely
Was there last year. Pretty yes, totally overcrowded with tourists. Shoulder to shoulder and in the evening got eaten alive by mosquitoes 😅. Once is enough.😊
Not sure why they call it sinking city.. we were there when it rained so much, sure floods everywhere during pouring rain but then the next day the sun came out and it was all dry and the water was way below the normal level.. you could literally see the moss of the building
The tides call the shots - on certain bright sunny dry days you'll find the city inundated with more than a feet of water. The city has been sinking for a long time from the days it was built using timber buried deep into the sediment . The basic premise of its construction has condemned it to its obsolescence .
the water was not below the normal level. The city is literally sinking. This has been scientifically proven, just like Jakarta and Mexico city, but not as fast
We probably have to close the city to the tourists. As much as we want to show off the city, mass tourism has only contributed to its destruction in recent times. All other problems can be solved.
Monoculture of Tourism...Venice is one of the most tourism-dependent cities in the world. How do you expect its citizens to survive? The city would become a ghost town for most of the city workers are in tourism and related industries and one of Venice's biggest problems would be the lack of permanent residents if the tourism was shut off. Venice is no longer the Maritime Republic it once was...

Is it more like sinking ? I live in the South Pacific My Country consists of many solid islands and many atolls . We have not noticed any seawater rising in the last 100 years , but washing off of beaches and some atolls is a constant natural happenings from periodic tropical cyclones . Venice is yet another masterpiece of Roman engineering worth saving .
How very sad! Venice’s is History we can’t afford to lose! This Planet had already lost so much! What is wrong with our World Leaders. We are all sharing this World together! Shouldn’t we ALL be working towards helping towards saving and restoring all these Historical Wonders and our Planet. All the money governments spends on wars etc. ingratiating their own personal gluttony and power is unconscionable. They are not doing the work of the people! Never have and sadly never will!😢This is not the will,of We The People. If we could change the world we would all be helping Venice to save its History etc. etc. and our humanity before we lose it all forever. I have always wanted t see Venice one of the most beautiful places in the World! I’m afraid I never will but hope for future generations Venice and her people will prevail! 🙏❤️🙏
Perhaps. But it was because they built there, and figured out how, the engineering and all that, how to live and made a success of it, that we got that civilization.
@chimp When they were the Phohecans a terrible earthquake hit..before that they were the Kenites and the Knights went to Switzerland.. they were the Canaanites unfortunately cursed but mixed with native Italians..the Huns Slavs they tried to conquer Europe but failed..everyone kicked them out..the Khans joined the Synology of satan and made a plan for sympathy.. they are the ones killing the children no matter how much they change their name they can't change their jealous modering ways
Venice is the most magnificent city on the planet. There are none like it and the entire world should participate in saving this treasure. I wish they also covered the dangers of millions of inconsiderate tourists that do damage to this city.
Although obviously a religious people, apparently the Venetians heeded little to this from Jesus. Mat 7:26 "Whoever hears these teachings of mine and does not obey them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.

So venice had time since the 11th century to save st marks basilica, by taking it apart and rebuilding it more than 6 inches above sea level. Feel like a mother with a wooden breast if you build such a treasure IN THE WRONG PLACE.
Heartbreaking. Such beauty and historical importance under threat. Trillions spent on wars, and this is allowed to happen. 😞

I agree with you. I visited Venice 20 years ago. It was beautiful.
Do you want Africans cooking Venetian food, like in the video? 🙄
I’ve eaten at the Florian! The mirrored walls are fabulous!

Visiting from so far in the future you must have concerns that any information you give will be disastrous for the future
Been there in 2022,I fell inlove! I wanna come back again. Greetings from Los Angeles❤
Absolutely amazing . I'm a German and I was many times in Venice. Never know this.
Amazing city. Amazing inventors.
Very interesting. Would love to visit but dislike large crowds of people.
The water being a friend and an en*my but you have to adapt to preserve your heritage, we understand that. Good luck from The Netherlands.
Most of Holland is bellow sea level..why can't they build dams like that❓
@@annychest718 I am afraid its probably a money thing. The technology is there to do it.
Maybe the Venice officials should collaborate with the dutch since they have such good water management
Ma hai visto tutto il video? Ormai abbiamo il Mose e da quando è in funzione non abbiamo più avuto l'acqua alta. Prima di scrivere va visto tutto il video,a mio modesto parere
But the dutch has no building that lasts 2000 years😂😂😂
@@kapawtaw Just because the buildings have lasted does not mean they cannot benefit from new ideas. Hence the gates. Who cares where the ideas come from.
It was thought back in 1980's that the sea level was rising. But when gps was available they found it was the ground that was sinking.
Both are happening at the same time
Unfortunately it’s both.
Been there 2023. The guides were unable to explain, why you should build just inches above the water line.
And yes, 6€ for a glass of Coke.

😮😮😮😮😮
What happened to the Venice in Peril appeal years ago (70s?) a group called Rondo Veniziana made an album of fabulous music?
I remember that. I was in Venice on holiday in the 1970's and again in the mid 2000s.
I find it amusing to suggest the water has risen 2.5 ft when the surrounding marshes much like the ones they built on are not yet covered over by this rising water...The truth is that the weight of the city itself is sinking the buildings into the marsh
Yes, but this does not fit the global warming narrative the media loves to push.
@@priestguardian2587 the surrounding marshes were much taller in previous centuries and also without any weight above they tend to "float"
Since I was a child I've always heard how Venice, Dhaka and Miami would be under water any day now...

My exact thoughts. Tons and tons of rock and wood sitting on a marsh. Ofcourse it's sinking. Amazing it's stood 1,000 year!
Talk about going with the flow.

There's always a price to pay when you mess around with nature .
Just like every monstrous church on the planet. Forests are cathedrals of life, and churches worship humans.
Horrible outlook.
@drew6194 But realistic.
that's a very backwoods viewpoint
maybe you should go back to the swamps
Could they not bring a bunch of soil around Venice and plant a series of forests around the city? It sounds a bit like the lagoon restoration idea.
Venice is an example of beauty being fragile and subject to the ravages of time ...
That’s life in general start off beautiful then age with the wear of time as it passes

Some people are saying that Venice really isn't sinking... Well, I heard that song... So it is .
Excellent video! I subscribed to your channel.
Might help if they outlaw motorized boats . Look at the wake they create. Needs to be gondolas only until they find a better way to protect structures.
At least they banned the enormous cruise ships which were causing massive damage underwater...
I'm confused is it actually sinking or is it the sea level rising?
Both..people have to stop dropping their waste in the waters sod is sod we have to replenish the earth..climate change is a hoax designed by the devil to produce more nuke and ruin the earth completely
So ... this was made in 2020. Now a whole 4 years ago. Has there been any improvement since then? Or maybe instead a worsening of the situation?
MOSE flood barrier system open now...
Just a correction
The arc angel gabriel is male
As are i think all catholic angels
Sexist ...
Not if this current pope has his way.
Can they not build some type of wall/dam around the city? They need some serious engineering to save this historic city.
The city is sinking down into water. A wall would just sink along with everything else.
Was there last year. Pretty yes, totally overcrowded with tourists. Shoulder to shoulder and in the evening got eaten alive by mosquitoes 😅. Once is enough.😊
It's almost like building an entire city on sand and silt isn't a good idea from the beginning. Who would've known...
It's lasted so long. I hate to see this has happened.
it would have lasted another thousands of years if it wasnt fir the water level rising
@@bettyprice7428who could have expected in the 1000s that we would have global warming

ye thats why we all go to places ,to se the water lvl =)))
Keep the cruise ships away. They will ruin everything. I love the art from persons that live in Venice.

The money is not there to save Venice
Is this a UNESCO site yet? Can that help with funding?
Restored beautifully until the next flood. 🤦♀️
