Welcome to Venice , everybody ! To start our tour today , I want to tell you about a we face in our beautiful city : floods . You see , a large portion of Venice was built on a salt marsh . City planners had to find a way to space and use every part of the marsh . Builders placed hundreds of wooden logs deep into the marsh . Then they placed building foundations on top of the logs . By doing this , they were able to the salt marsh into land for farming . But the salt marsh is like a giant sponge .

The weight of the city pushes down on the salt marsh and buildings slowly sink into the water . High tides , called acqua alta , are also a problem . Now , Venice floods on a regular basis . Venetian are used to the floods , but our old and beautiful buildings suffer . Many are damaged by the water and the of these buildings is very expensive .

The city is now building water barriers that will stop seawater from flooding the city . This project is called MOSE , and it will be completed soon . The cost of this project is already more than seven billion dollars . Some people argue that the project violates government and is illegal . Others believe that the water barriers will interfere with the beauty of the city and will cause tourists to leave . Let's hope this does not happen because tourism business for shops , restaurants , and hotels . support is necessary to help pay for the MOSE project . So thank you for coming to Venice !
