While dreaming of going abroad, people often only picture beautiful beaches, historical streets and open freedom in their mind. But if this freedom conflicts with the law, it can be a burden on the pocket. Many popular tourist cities in Europe are now welcoming tourists with strict rules. In some places wearing a bikini is a crime, in some places driving in slippers is a crime. The question is why were these rules changed?
Increasing tourism and decreasing patience
Mass tourism has increased rapidly in the last few years in many countries of Europe. In summer, millions of tourists reach small towns and islands. This affects local life. Noise, dirt, undisciplined behavior and misuse of public places have now become common problems. The administration says that these rules are not to punish tourists, but to protect the dignity of the cities and the local culture.
swimsuits will be limited to the beach
In many seaside cities of Spain, Italy, France and Croatia, there are clear instructions that swimsuits or bikinis will be limited to the beach only. In cities like Barcelona, Cannes, Venice, Split and Sorrento, if a tourist is found roaming in a bikini or swimsuit on the city streets, he can be fined heavily. In many places this fine reaches more than one lakh rupees. The local administration believes that this rule is necessary to maintain public decency.
Driving in slippers is also a crime
In Europe, driving is considered a very responsible job. In countries like Spain, Greece, Italy and France, it is illegal to drive a car or bike wearing flip-flops or slippers. The reason is clear, slippers can slip from the feet and the risk of an accident increases. In such cases, a fine of around Rs 25 to 30 thousand can be imposed. This rule applies to both tourists and locals alike.
Alcohol, Noise and Strictness
There is a strict ban on drinking alcohol on the streets in party destinations such as Majorca, Fiji and the Canary Islands. If caught drinking alcohol in the open, a fine of up to lakhs of rupees can be imposed. At the same time, in some cities of Spain, there is a provision of penalty for blocking the space by keeping a towel on the chair near the pool for a long time. The administration says that public resources are for everyone, their capture is not acceptable.
Tampering with nature is also costly
In countries like Greece, picking up shells, stones or sand from the beach is a legal crime. If caught doing this, a heavy fine is imposed. Its purpose is to maintain the natural balance. Similarly, swimming in the historic canals of Venice is strictly prohibited. If rules are broken, legal action may be taken along with challan.
