Why does Venice divert tourists?

In order to cope with the influx of tourists during the May Day International Labor Day, Venice, an Italian water city, will take temporary management measures to divert tourists and local residents. Luigi Brugnaro, Mayor of Venice, said that a large number of tourists are expected to arrive in Venice from April 28th to May 1 day, and "emergency measures" will be taken to "ensure public safety and livability".

Restrictions include: guiding tourists to popular tourist attractions such as Rome Square and New Street, and only allowing local residents and frequent visitors with Venice City Pass to enter specific areas; Visitors who enter Venice by water can't disembark at the commonly used Schiavone River embankment, and will start from the new Binhai Street. Go on road trip tourists who have not booked city parking spaces in advance are not allowed to enter the city.

Brunaro explained: "All tourists know that if they respect the city, they will be welcomed. But at the same time, we have an obligation to protect Venice. " Venice attracts a large number of tourists from all over the world every year. The total number of residents in this city is only 50,000, but the number of tourists every year is as high as 30 million. There is a call to limit the number of tourists. Source: Xinhuanet
