WATER CITIES



Today we read an article from a magazine that taught us about water cities. We learnt that water cities don't have cars they have boats and instead of roads they have canals. 
The people that live in water cities get their food from the water by fishing. Some also wash their clothes and themselves in the water too. 

We found out about these cities:
Kashmir-India, Lake Toba-Indionesia, St Ives-England, Amsterdam-TheNetherlands.

It was pretty cool that we learnt about water cities because none of us knew about them. It was really interesting!

    Wow - water. I have spent some time in Amsterdam and while it has LOTS of canals it certainly has roads and cars. I am surprised that Venice is not on the list. We were there last year and it certainly has NO cars. The taxis and buses are boats. Can you find which country it is in?
    Glad you learned lots about this.

    Mr Bangma

    We accepted your challenge and we found it! It's in Italy! We searched for it on google then looked on a map to see how far away it is from New Zealand. Do you have any more challenges for us?
