The authorities of the Italian city of Venice have collected over 5 million euros (approximately $7.5 million) in entrance fees imposed on daily trips to the city during the main tourist season from April to July, with fees ranging from 5 to 10 euros. The fees have been paid by over 650,000 visitors, while free entry is allowed for visitors staying just one day in the city at other times of the year. The mayor proposes raising the fees to between 30 and 50 euros during peak tourist days, but the decision is subject to consultation with the Italian government, as the mayor does not have the authority to set fees independently due to a national law that caps them. The aim of these fees is to improve the management of tourist flow in the city, which is home to around 50,000 residents, with long-term hotel guests exempted from the daily fee.
