Citing the city’s deputy mayor for tourism, Simone Venturini, Euronews reports travellers will only be able to visit the iconic location once they have paid for a €5 one-day ticket.
Venturini said the aim of the scheme was to discourage "hit-and-run" visitors and limit the number of total arrivals.
Cameras will be installed around the city to monitor the flow of visitors, it is reported, with the restrictions expected to be implemented in the coming weeks.
