Medusa was seen in a canal near Piazza San Marco in Venice.

With Italy closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, the country's different tourist attractions are practically unrecognizable. Whether due to the lack of people on the streets or the obvious changes that are being recorded.

No case of Venice, one of the most crowded cities, the lack of people is very evident, and the lack of boats on the canals too, which has reduced pollution to historic levels.

The waters of the canals, heavily polluted, have shown a relief in pressure in recent days and have become almost completely translucent, making it possible to see the bottom of the canals, the steps of the stairs that access them and the marine life.

A video recently published on social media shows a jellyfish “swimming” through one of the city's canals, showing how calm Venice's “roads” are.
