Rome Considering Introducing Tickets For Trevi Fountain

Sep 5 2024

Roman tourism officials are considering implementing a paid ticket system with designated time slots to view the iconic Trevi Fountain, as part of efforts to address the city’s overtourism challenges.

Alessandro Onorato, the capital’s councillor for tourism and major events, told Corriere della Sera on Wednesday that the proposal aims to limit the number of visitors at the landmark, which frequently sees tourists behaving inappropriately.

“I would support exploring a new access system, limited and timed, with reservations: free for Romans and costing a symbolic euro for tourists,” Onorato said.

The issue of tourists disrespecting the Trevi Fountain is longstanding. Last year, Onorato sought assistance from the Italian government to prevent tourists from jumping into the historic monument.

Following the introduction of a €5 ticket for tourists visiting the Pantheon, Rome’s busiest landmark, it appears the Trevi Fountain may soon follow suit.

Massive ‘Shark Fin’ Spotted In Marsaskala’s St Thomas Bay

Sep 4 2024

A video of what appears to be a massive shark fin in Marsaskala’s St Thomas Bay has gone viral, garnering nearly 30,000 views on TikTok within 24 hours. The footage, filmed yesterday afternoon, shows the fin-like object moving through the water near the shore, attracting widespread attention online.

However, the size of the “shark” and the calm reactions of nearby beachgoers suggest it was likely a prop for an upcoming production. The presence of a diver swimming casually next to the object further indicates the sighting was staged rather than a real shark encounter.

While the spectacle may have raised some initial concerns, no danger was present in the bay, and it appears to have been created for entertainment purposes.

The video continues to circulate widely on social media. Did you see this shark in Marsaskala?
