A tourist has been fined €500 (£436) for swimming in Rome's Trevi Fountain, a historic monument. The woman was seen taking off her shoes before entering the water, which angered security staff and onlookers.
Another tourist has made a mockery of Rome 's Trevi Fountain by filming herself going for a swim at the historic monument for social media . The woman has been labelled as 'disrespectful' after she was seen taking off her shoes before entering the water.
Despite the confrontation, the trespasser continued to smirk and later took to social media to show off her antics. She attracted widespread criticism from viewers of the videos, which have amassed a combined total of more than nine million views across TikTok and X. The Trevi Fountain, built over 30 years in the 18th century, has long been a hotspot for public nuisance.
Oils from human skin as well as vandalism, litter, and careless climbing can accelerate the erosion of the porous stone, which is why Roman authorities enforce strict rules to protect the landmark
