Die Menge. Sie sind unerträglich. Ich verstehe, ich bin ein Tourist, aber das ist nur verrückt. Ich war überall in Italien und es beginnt mit dem Tourismus seine Schale zu verlieren. Es fühlt sich wie ein Themenpark in den großen Städten an. Meine Meinung ändern?

Maybe stop visiting them, so there are less tourists?
Maybe help with the situation and go somewhere else
The difference is, in Disneyland the castles are fake
Love when tourists complain about the fact that there are too many tourists, warms my heart :’)
Surprised pikachu
The point is that millions of people are like you. They are just tourists, millions of tourists that visit the same 5-6 cities always during the same 3 months 😔
I don’t get your point about the theme park. The buildings are real, they were not made for tourists. Theme parks imitate these buildings.
imagine going to Florence and look at tourists of all things
Tourist that blames other tourists because are sharing the same spot (and probably had seen the same pics of that gorgeous landscape on Instagram\TikTok).
mmh.
Btw, i see your point, but complaining about overtourism as a tourist it’s really weird.
> Change my mind?
No, we won’t, and the impression you got is right. Florence (among many) is a theme park for tourists, with little trace of its past as a real city. Everything you see is designed for tourism, so it’s pretty easy to get sick from the view.
Stop visiting, and the florentines maybe could get their city back, though they don’t deserve it.
I don’t visit italy for this very reason and i’m italian
Tuscany in particular is full of town and cities even more beautiful than Florence, you can research for a less known tour of the region and avoid the hordes! 🙂
I’m Italian and I come from the region of Venice, yet I haven’t visited in years. I went to Venice for an afternoon last week.
Piazza San Marco (the main square): Disneyland. Full to the brim of tourists and overpriced everything. 300 meters in any direction? Almost empty, enjoyable city. I had breakfast for less than €4 sitting down in a beautiful square, in peaceful solitude. I saw some beautiful streets, houses, canals, shops etc. and there were hardly any tourists around. They were all in the main square and two or three main streets. Literally taking a right or a left at any point opened up a completely different city.
Visit Italy, it’s an amazing place. Visit major cities also, but be smart about it. You don’t have to be in the one square where everyone else is. You don’t have to eat in the 10 restaurants recommended on TikTok. Explore and you’ll be rewarded. And when I say explore, literally walk five or ten minutes in any directions away from the crowd in Florence, or Venice. Take the underground in Milan and go places, don’t just walk around the Cathedral area and complain the only thing to do in Milan is shopping, when there’s more than 100 museums, yet everyone only visits 1 or 2.
The problem isn’t tourism itself, it’s dumb tourism. On top of that, there’s dozens of cities tourists don’t travel as much to that are just as amazing, and yet you didn’t decide to go there.
> in the major cities
This is because you’re visiting the „major“ cities. There are plenty of beautiful cities without this mess of people
if you are part of the issue, you dont have the right to bitch about it.
Remember: you’re not „stuck in traffic“, you _are_ traffic.
