1Venice, Italy

Venice, the “Floating City,” is famous for its canals, bridges, and historic architecture.

However, this romantic destination has been overwhelmed by mass tourism for years.The city’s fragile ecosystem and the impact of large cruise ships have pushed Venice to restrict tourist numbers.
Day-trippers now face entrance fees, and efforts are being made to reduce overcrowding in the city’s narrow streets and squares. The local population has been shrinking, as high rents and crowded living conditions make it difficult for Venetians to stay.
