(ANSA) - ROME, APR 19 - Venice tourists will have to book
their visits to the historic centre of the lagoon city starting
this summer, Mayor Luigi Brugnaro said after a packed Easter
weekend.
Reservations will be compulsory by the end of the summer and
from next year visitors will have to pay an entry fee, the mayor
told the Corriere del Veneto newspaper Tuesday.
He was speaking after some 140,000 people flocked into Venice on
Easter Sunday, and almost 100,000 more on Easter Monday.
"This is the right way forward," Brugnaro said, "and today many
people have realized it". (ANSA).
