Rome could limit access to Trevi fountain as it grapples with overtourism
Briefly

Officials in Rome are considering measures to limit access to the Trevi Fountain due to overtourism, including advance reservations and a potential nominal fee for visitors.
Councillor Alessandro Onorato emphasized the need for respectful visitor behavior, highlighting that while access would be free for residents, tourists may face a small fee to manage crowds.
Mayor Roberto Gualtieri pointed out the increasing difficulty of managing tourist numbers and the resulting degradation at the Trevi Fountain, indicating a need for concrete measures.
The Lombardy region's tourism challenges mirror those faced across Europe, with local officials implementing strategies like time-slot systems to alleviate overcrowding at popular landmarks.
