Weekly Photo Challenge : BEYOND
A city on water. A city without cars
A gorgeous city. A place so romantic.
A city stuck in the past. A city on stage.
A city with rising tourism, yet with sliding population
A dying city. Ciao ciao Venice!

Sad to hear that. I hope they can revitalize it.
Sadly only the tourists seems to care more of this beautiful place. There’s still no solid proposed plan on how to truly stop the inevitable submersion of the city of Venice…well I suppose nothing last forever.
That’s sad news. I haven’t been there and hope to go there before the people are all gone.
That is sad. It is a beautiful place where people from other countries dream of visiting. Wonderful images.
love them all “,)
Thank you Xristina
I sensed this too when I was there about 5 years ago. It’s sad…
Let’s just hope that the proposed technological fixes would stop this.
when did you go? we are going next month. I don’t think it’s a dying city, although it might look crumbling it’s been there for centuries and it’s survived the water for this long, they are certainly going to find a way to save all those beautiful houses, people and architecture. The project for the high-water is called MOSE. One thing they should stop is the huge cruise liners, they have no place in Venice, too big for such shallow waters, and they bring too many people.
This was years ago. Hopefully MOSE will be a successful project this time. Thank you!
I’ve always wanted to go to Venice…looking at your pictures has revived my dream
You should, it’s truly a unique city. Thanx so much for stopping by PiP
