9. What is your favorite building?

It is the project called MOSE (Modulo Sperimentale Elettromeccanico). It's in Venice, Italy. There are canal locks located in the sea. The more water comes towards Venice, the more it will increase due to the compressed air. This should completely prevent flooding of the city. I am so excited about this project. They are only doing tests now, because it is not yet a hundred percent in operation. This is the greatest thing there can be, because floods have been a problem for Venice for centuries. Since the 1950s, there have been around 20 flood events. In fact, that's a problem, otherwise the whole city would sink.
