News summary

Rome is considering implementing a 2-euro ticket for tourists to access the Trevi Fountain, a popular site expected to see increased visitors during the 2025 Jubilee year, which may attract 32 million tourists. The proposal, backed by the city's tourism councilor Alessandro Onorato and Mayor Roberto Gualtieri, aims to manage the rising crowds and their associated issues, allowing free access for residents. A reservation system using QR codes is proposed to limit the number of visitors at any given time, particularly on the steps leading to the fountain, while maintaining public access to the plaza. Similar measures have been adopted in other tourist-heavy cities to combat overtourism and preserve local environments. The plan is still under deliberation, with a trial expected to begin by the end of 2024. Authorities hope these changes will enhance the visitor experience at this historic site, known for its beauty and cinematic history.
