4,000 residents. 2.5 million visitors. Do the math.
Five tiny fishing villages on the Ligurian coast that collectively house 4,000 people and host 2.5 million visitors annually. Vernazza and Manarola are essentially open-air Instagram studios between June and September. Italy floated a plan to charge entrance fees to the entire region. Locals have hung banners reading "Tourists, you are destroying this area." The focaccia is still incredible though.
