Saving a City: Venice - Top Travel Destination
About this episode
This episode discusses the flood barrier MOSE and essential travel information about Venice.
Venice should not exist — yet thirteen centuries on, it's still fighting the sea. In this episode, Kevin tells the story of MOSE, the colossal, controversial and staggeringly expensive flood barrier holding back the Adriatic, and what every traveller should know before visiting the city it protects.
