April 25 is a national holiday in Italy and is the first of 29 days this year when people must buy a ticket if they want to access the lagoon city from 8.30am to 4.30pm. "No one has ever done this before," Venice Mayor Luigi Brugnaro told reporters earlier this month."We are not closing the city... we are just trying to make it liveable."
Venice narrowly escaped being placed on Unesco's"World Heritage in Danger" list last year partly because the United Nations body decided that the city was addressing concerns that its delicate ecosystem risked being overwhelmed by mass tourism.
