Imagine tossing a coin into the Trevi Fountain and making a wish – a classic Roman tradition, right? 🤩 Well, that iconic experience might soon come with a price tag! 💸
After years of tourists packing the Piazza di Trevi like sardines 🐟, Roman authorities are thinking about charging a small fee for those wanting to get up close and personal with the famous fountain. 📸
The Trevi Fountain, made famous by movies like \"La Dolce Vita\" 🎥, has been a hotspot for travelers from all over the globe 🌍. But the massive crowds are causing wear and tear on the historic site and making it tough for everyone to enjoy the magic. ✨
\"We want to preserve our cultural treasures while ensuring a pleasant experience for visitors,\" said a city official. 🏛️
The proposed fee is expected to be minimal – think of it as a small contribution to keep the fountain sparkling for generations to come. 💖 Plus, fewer crowds might mean a better selfie game! 🤳
So, if you're planning a Roman holiday anytime soon, be prepared for this possible change. And don't forget to practice your coin-tossing skills! 🪙🎯
