Rapid sinking of Venice

The situation of the city of Venice is very worrying, because the collapse of the city is occurring at a faster than expected and each year the city comes to dip a little more. For tourists who enjoy a holiday in Venice to see the flooded city can be fun, but for citizens is not very nice to know that Venice is sinking.

This is because the land on which the city is gradually sinks each year, only a few millimeters each year that are sufficient for the years after this collapse can be noticed. On the other hand the increase of the sea is another danger in Venice, so experts say that not many years the city of Venice can be completely under water, even if it means we have to wait some time yet.

Each time the city is flooded it does with a higher level and this is a situation that impairs the monuments of Venice and of great concern to all citizens of the area. Currently tourism does not suffer from floods and indeed for many tourists is one of the many attractions offered by Venice throughout the year, an image which unfortunately is becoming quite common to see it as romantic Italian city for couples who come to her on vacation.
