"Venice Sets Tourist Group Size Cap at 25 to Preserve Historic Cityscape"
TL;DR Summary
Venice is set to implement new measures in 2024 to limit tourist groups to 25 people and ban loudspeakers to reduce congestion and noise pollution, promoting sustainable tourism and protecting the UNESCO Heritage Site. This follows other efforts like charging a tourist tax and banning large ships to manage the overwhelming 30 million annual visitors and address the city's gradual sinking due to climate change and overdevelopment.
