Trevi Fountain Reopens with Visitor Limit

Rome's iconic Trevi Fountain has reopened after a three-month renovation, but now limits visitors to 400 at a time to prevent overcrowding. This new queuing system aims to enhance the experience for tourists who previously faced daily crowds of 10,000 to 12,000. Mayor Roberto Gualtieri announced that while entry remains free for now, a modest fee may be introduced in the future to help finance ongoing maintenance. The fountain, famous for its coin-tossing tradition, raises about €10,000 weekly for a charity that supports the needy. The renovations were completed just in time for the upcoming Jubilee Year, which is expected to draw millions of visitors to Rome. Overall, these changes reflect an effort to improve visitor experience while preserving one of the city’s most beloved landmarks.
