They are so diabolical. Just a while ago they were crying due to lack of tourists, even during Olympics, as people stayed away due to obnoxious hospitability.
Be careful what you wish for though. Economies that are largely open museums suffer a lot when tourism go away.
Airbnb, short-term rentals and capital investment firms turn neighborhoods into hotels and business, driving out real residents. When they are gone, schools, shops, and local life vanish too.
What about the rampant pickpocketing and bracelet extortion surrounding said tourism?
Not fighting about over-immigration though? It’s the tourists? Just the tourists? Keep telling yourselves that.
Montmartre felt like one of the least safe areas I’ve been to in Europe. But I guess we can call it Disneyfication
Disney world at this point is a massive tourist trap
Change my mind
Their issue will be with the french government for promoting tourism and making it easy to visit france?
I think there needs to be a reasonable compromise: tourism is certainly necessary, including as a significant part of the economy and the growth of residents’ well-being and the preservation of buildings.
On the other hand, a large number of seasonal tourists makes life difficult for local residents and dramatically increases the cost of everything around.
Why don’t the authorities introduce a certain quota for the tourism sector, and if it is exceeded, the cost of tourist fees and taxes on hotels increases significantly? AI helps to do it
This is not an ideal solution, but it will allow you to regulate and redistribute the flow of visitors over time and by attraction, creating opportunities for “hidden gems” to shine.
Parisian here: people have always bitched about over tourism, and have always bitched about it in Montmartre.
The new element is the mayor pursuing her policy of removing cars through pedestrian streets, bike lanes and vegetation, giving those people another thing to bitch about.
Very little to do with over tourism this time around really. Just the usual tirade from the right wingers thinking the economic fabric of the city will crumble if they can’t park directly in front of their home and their destinations.
Disneyfication sounds really really really BAD. Plastic everywhere and so…
I don’t know why people want to visit over-crowded over-priced hot cities for holiday.
I go on holiday to get away from crowds and chill.
