Venice: giật tiền rực rỡ

Venice charging day-trippers €5

Venice will become the first major city in the world to adopt such a measure when the long-mooted €5 (£4.30) fee comes into force later this month.

Luigi Brugnaro said the objective was not to make money for Venice’s coffers but to “defend” the lagoon city, which attracts an estimated 40,000 visitors a day, and make it more liveable.

The tickets are bookable online and apply on 29 peak dates between 25 April and 14 July. Venice authorities consider 2024 as being the experimental phase of the initiative.

Day-trippers will be provided with a QR code once they’ve booked their ticket, which is required only for access to Venice’s historic centre. Stewards will carry out checks at various access points and visitors risk fines of up to €300 if they arrive without a code.

5 euros rẻ quá. 3 chục hay 4 chục mới ngăn bớt khách.

Paris: tiền đồ rực rỡ

‘15-minute city’ taken off in Paris
https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2...-carlos-moreno

Moreno has written The 15-Minute City about his theory, which is being implemented in cities from Milan to Buenos Aires. In it, he explains his theory, which is quite simple. When many modern cities were designed, they were for men to work in. Their wives and family stayed in the suburbs, while the workers drove in. So they have been designed around the car, and segmented into different districts: the financial district, the cultural area and then the suburbs. They have also often been segmented into wealthier and poorer areas.

“My idea is to break this triple segregation,” he says.

Stroll down the banks of the Seine today in the new protected parks and outdoor bars, and it is hard to imagine that it was recently a traffic-choked highway. But with the guidance of Moreno, this became a reality. In 2024, nobody requests to open again the highway on the Seine, no one wants the Seine urban park to be open for cars.”

Moreno says this is happening with or without him; after the Covid crisis many offices are selling up their large spaces in the financial district and moving closer to residential areas. People are choosing jobs they can work remotely from or that are situated closer to their homes.

Trả lại Paris khung trời đại học
Con đường sông Seine cây dài bóng mát
Buổi chiều công viên mây trời xanh ngát
Bước chân trên đường chẳng lo xe cộ…

Mount Fuji view to be blocked

Mount Fuji, Japan’s highest mountain, can be photographed from many spots in the resort town of Fujikawaguchiko. This viewpoint is particularly popular because the majestic – and active – volcano appears behind a Lawson convenience store, which are ubiquitous in Japan.

Construction of the mesh net – 2.5 metres (8ft) high and the length of a cricket pitch at 20 metres – will begin as early as next week, an official from Fujikawaguchiko town said on Friday.

It is the latest direct action in Japan against over-tourism after residents of Kyoto’s geisha district banned visitors from small private alleys this year.

Amsterdam: trị tiểu đường

Amsterdam women win fight for more public toilets
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...public-toilets

Geerte Piening was on her way home from a bar one night in 2015. She swiftly weighed her options: it was past closing time in Amsterdam’s lively Leidseplein area, meaning she could not duck into a bar to use their facilities, while the nearest public toilet was 2km away.

She resorted to squatting in an alleyway, coaxing her friends to cover her as she did so. Police soon turned up, handing her a €140 (£118) fine for public urination.

Few could have predicted what would come next. After a nine-year battle for “urination equality” in which thousands took to the streets of the Netherlands, this month Amsterdam said it would open more public toilets in October.

“Women from across the country are invited to demonstrate the (im)possibilities of urinating in a public urinal built for men,” said the organisers of one protest coined “Power to the Peepee”.
