Rome Eyes Trevi Fountain Fee to Curb Crowds
News summary

Rome is considering introducing a ticketing system for the Trevi Fountain to manage overtourism and protect the historic site. The proposed plan includes a reservation system with a symbolic fee of one euro for tourists, while locals would access for free. This initiative aims to reduce overcrowding and ensure visitors treat the monument with respect, particularly ahead of the 2025 Jubilee, which is expected to draw millions of extra visitors. Similar measures have been tested in other Italian cities like Venice, which charges a fee for day visitors during peak periods. Rome's tourism councillor, Alessandro Onorato, emphasized that the goal is not to make money but to control the crowds and preserve the monument's charm. The proposal is still in its early stages, with the city seeking sustainable tourism practices amid record visitor numbers.
