Venice wasn’t built on solid ground...
It was built on millions of wooden logs driven deep into the seafloor.

Since the year 421 A.D., this floating city has defied both time and engineering logic.
While most cities stand on bedrock or concrete, Venice rises on a forest of waterlogged timber.

Yes — wood.
Specifically, alder trees — a type that doesn’t rot underwater.
When buried in clay and soaked in salty water, this wood doesn’t decay — it petrifies.
Over centuries, it hardens, becoming nearly as tough as stone.

A timeless wonder still holding up an entire city.

St. Mark’s Campanile rests on 100,000 wooden piles.
The grand Basilica della Salute required over a million.

Each pile was hammered in by hand, spaced every half meter, driven up to three meters deep into the seabed.

But why build a city on water?

In the early 5th century, Italy was under attack by barbarian tribes.
Fleeing the invasions, people sought refuge in the muddy, marshy Venetian lagoon.
The water was their wall — a natural fortress that enemies couldn’t cross easily.

And so, between mud and mist, Venice was born.
Not as a city that conquered nature — but as one that coexisted with it.

Venice doesn’t float by magic.
It floats by ingenious design, by necessity,
and by the strength of a story that refuses to sink.

Mark Zukerberg increases his Welath near about $8 Billion due to Meta’s share jump more than 4%..

This encapsulates the journey of Mark Zuckerberg, who co-founded Facebook at the age of 19 while studying at Harvard University. He dropped out to focus on developing the platform, which rapidly expanded beyond college campuses to become a global social networking service.

By the age of 23, Zuckerberg became the world’s youngest self-made billionaire. In 2012, Facebook went public, and in 2021, the parent company was rebranded as Meta Platforms to reflect its focus on building the metaverse.  

As of March 2025, Zuckerberg’s estimated net worth stands at $214.1 billion, making him the second richest individual globally.
