The end of the long bridge that from April 25th to May 1st is approaching, characterized, in Venice, by since the introduction of the 5 Euro access fee for residents outside the region visiting the city for the day. Monday 29 April, fifth day of application of the desired measure from the Municipality of Venice, saw 17,130 paying people registered, in line with Saturday’s figure and down compared to last weekend. Among the exempt, there was a drop of 7,000 units, stopping at 51,000 guests in accommodation facilities.
