Favorite European travel destination bans selfies as tourists spark 'anarchic chaos' in streets

An Italian city famous for its beauty is banning selfies at popular spots with jaw-dropping views to prevent tourists from lingering and clogging its narrow streets.

Portofino, which is a town of approximately 500 people southeast of Genoa on the Italian Riviera, has introduced no-waiting zones in the town where tourists are prohibited from taking pictures, according to the BBC.

Those who spend too much time in the zones could be fined €275, or roughly $305, the outlet reported.

The selfie ban comes amid what Portofino Mayor Matteo Viacava described as “anarchic chaos” caused by tourists who snarl traffic and block streets to take pictures in the small city, which is a coastal fishing community renowned for its colorful buildings.

The prohibition first went into effect amid a swell of tourism during Easter weekend, and the measures are slated to continue from morning until 6 p.m. until October as tourists pour into Portofino throughout the summer months.

Thousands of tourists visit Portofino every year, and celebrities also frequent the destination, with the Kardashians and Beyoncé among those spotted there recently.

Selfie bans have been introduced in other cities and countries in response to tourism, such as portions of the U.K.’s Tower of London, which bans selfies for security reasons near the crown jewels housed there.

In the U.S., California and New York have prohibited selfies in zoos and other places with wild animals.

Hi, I’m Nathan. I’m a SWE with experience in large scale data processing and backend, with a recent focus on ML/Natural Language Processing.

  Location: Vancouver, BC
  Remote: Yes, in Canada
  Willing to relocate: No
  Technologies: Python, Java, Spark, Kubernetes, FastAPI
  Résumé/CV: https://natpat.net/static/cv.pdf
  Email: nmtpatel7337 [at] gmail [dot] com

Whilst I am a strong technical contributor, I’m also interested in leadership, mentorship and learning. My favourite challenge recently has been leading a highly motivated and skilled team of SWE, AI Researchers and Data Scientists. I’m interested in a position where I can continue working with strong co-workers and help mould and lead strong, productive and happy teams.
I also love learning and being surrounded by people from different backgrounds and fields to me. I’ve had exposure to bio-tech and NLP, but would also be interested in other ML fields, robotics, health, eco/green energy, and probably more.

I’m also very interested in game development, mainly as a hobby – see https://natpat.net/games. Would be very open to roles in that sector too!

Sadly, I can only accept roles that would be able to provide me with a Canadian Work Permit, which likely excludes many US-only based companies.
