'It will change nothing': Venice residents protest against tourism entrance fee

Authorities in Venice have been accused of transforming the famous lagoon city into a 'theme park' as a long-mooted entrance fee for day trippers comes into force.

Venice is the first major city in the world to enact such a scheme. The €5 (£4.30) charge, which comes into force today, is aimed at protecting the Unesco world heritage site from the effects of excessive tourism by deterring day trippers and, according to the mayor, Luigi Brugnaro, making the city 'liveable' again. But several residents’ committees and associations held protests on Thursday, arguing that the fee would do nothing to resolve the issue.

Do these tourists not bring a lot of revenue into Venice?

Doesn't sound very inviting. Spend your money somewhere else.

“ the influx arriving from the East.” The US? It’s “the East”? What is she talking about? If it’s tourists, then they’re getting taxed, no?
