PAS DE WEB/PAS D'APPS - touristes à la Piazza San Marco, le centre de gravité touristique à Venise, Italie le 12 août 2017. La ville de Venise, envahie par les touristes, risque de devenir ‘la terre aride par la mer’. La plupart des Vénitiens méprisent les navires de croisière qui traversent le canal de Giudecca chaque jour, émettant des fumées, provoquant l'érosion des vasières et la perte de sédiments, avant de dégorger des milliers de personnes dans le centre historique. Qu'ils soient irrités par des bâtons de selfie, des valises bruyantes à roulettes ou des gens qui s'accroché sur l'un des 391 ponts, le mépris des Vénitiens envers les 30 millions de visiteurs qui inondent le

NO WEB/NO APPS - Tourists in Piazza San Marco, the center of tourist gravity in Venice, Italy on August 12, 2017. The city of Venice, invaded by tourists risks becoming ‘Disneyland by the Sea’. Most of the Venetians despise the behemoth cruise ships that chug through the Giudecca canal every day, emitting fumes, causing erosion of the mudflats and sediment loss, before disgorging thousands of people into the historic centre. Whether irritated by selfie sticks, noisy wheelie suitcases or people snacking on one of the 391 bridges, Venetians' contempt towards the 30 million visitors who flood the city each year has reached alarming levels. Many of them are grab-and-go day-trippers, people who come for just a few hours and see nothing. Venetians lament the surge in the number of B&Bs and hotels, which make it impossible for residents to find a home to rent on a long-term contract. Venice’s population has fallen from about 175, 000 in the post-second world war years to 55, 000 today. Around 2, 000 people leave each year. On this way, in a few years’ time Venice will only be populated by tourists. Some of the roughly Venetians who remain in the city have organized associations against the ‘Big Ships’. But the cruise ships don’t just bring fees into the city, they also create jobs down a whole supply chain, benefiting mechanics, waiters, gondoliers and water taxis… Italian government officials, lamenting what they call ‘low-quality tourism, ’ are considering limiting the numbers of tourists who can enter the city or its landmark piazzas. And to combat slovenly tourists, Venice authorities are distributing leaflets and posting posters with a new set of rules (No picnic, no sit, no swim…) Photo by Eric Vandeville/ABACAPRESS.COM
