Italian mayor introduces ban

Italian mayor introduces ban - Massimo Coppola, mayor of the city of Sorrento, in southern Italy, has announced that tourists in swimsuits or shirtless will no longer be able to wander the streets this summer. In the Bay of Naples, tourists are welcome but once they leave the beach, they will have to put on a t-shirt and get dressed before discovering the region. The seaside resort, which attracts many tourists every year, no longer wishes to see tourists walking through the streets shirtless or in swimsuits. Tourists who do not respect the rule could risk a fine from 25 to 500 euros.
