A floating city that grew up along the shores of the Mediterranean Sea with an area of 414.57 square kilometers. It is said that about 1500 years ago, a bandit named Attila lived on the shores of the Adriatic Sea. He used to loot the wealth of common people living on the coast. To escape his tyranny, the common people lived in this watery Venice so that this bandit on horseback could not rob them of their wealth. From that the beginning of Venice. Venice has 118 islands and 177 canals. Europe's only car-free city. The distance from Rome to Venice in Italy is about five hundred and fifty kilometers.
