A person can learn something new everyday.

I unsuccessfully searched for a museum about this in Venice when I last visited. Now I finally understand!

Just amazing, definitely on my bucket list 👍

Venetian civilization and architecture is magnificent. You can see many other cities they have built in modern day Venetia, Croatia, Slovenia, Greece… Venetian Republic had two flags; one for the land, one for the sea.

Incredible Italy 💕

Venice is still standing in its strange fish-like shape just because the huge undead leviathan on which the city lies is still sleeping, entrapped by foundation poles used like spears by the ancient builders. But legends say it will break free during the first carnival night of 2048, starting the Apocalypse. Our lives will be in the hands of a few people masked by traditional characters from Commedia-dell'-arte and will be extremely hard for anyone to escape from the sinking city and even more to destroy the leviathan. This is what we learn from a funny and crazy boardgame called Carnival Zombie 2 😂
