Japan 🇯🇵 plans to build a floating city called Dogen City, a project led by Japanese startup N-Ark, aiming to be ready by 2030.
✅️Location: Floating on the ocean, designed to withstand natural disasters and sea level rise.
✅️Size: Approximately 4 km in diameter, with capacity for 40,000 inhabitants.
✅️Design: Circular and modular, with residential areas, hospitals, commercial areas and research spaces.
✅️Sustainability: It will work with renewable energies, local food cultivation and will have an underwater data center for natural cooling.
✅️Innovation: Will include rocket platforms, high-tech hospitals and cloud-connected health technologies.

As Japan projects its futuristic floating city, it's impossible not to remember that Tenochtitlan, founded in 1325, was already a city built on water, with impressive hydraulic and urban engineering. Perhaps the truly groundbreaking is rediscovering what ancient civilizations already knew centuries ago.
