VENICE

Venice, Italy is romantic, enchanting and postcard-perfect, attracting up to 20 million visitors each year. But now the frustrated locals want their city back.

Hundreds of Venetians have clogged the city's narrow streets, brandishing shopping trolleys and prams, to protest against the hordes of tourists that pour into the city every day.

They’re fed-up with battling crowds while going about their everyday business, claiming they can’t afford the skyrocketing price of rent as tacky souvenir shops push out necessities.

Venice, located in northern Italy, is famous for its canals, gondoliers, and risotto. Its labyrinth of medieval streets, large squares and beautiful churches makes it extremely popular for day trips.

More than 60,000 visitors arrive each day on cruise ships and trains, which is more than the city’s estimated permanent population of 55,000.

“We may be the last generation to live in Venice as a real city, where to find a house and a job, or going about our daily lives on the streets were normal things, not the actions of superheroes,” protester group Generation 90 said in an open letter onFacebook.
